Sorry I Answered but You may have UTI
UTI Symptoms
In general, UTI signs and symptoms develop pretty fast and can include:
? A strong, persistent urge to urinate
? A burning sensation when urinating
? Passing frequent, small amounts of urine
? Blood in the urine (hematuria) or cloudy, strong-smelling urine
? Bacteria in the urine (bacteriuria)

Different parts of the urinary tract system can develop specific symptoms if infection appears:
If infection attacks the urethra (urethritis), the most common symptom is burning during
urination. If infection enters to the bladder (cystitis), symptoms include pelvic pressure, lower abdomen discomfort and frequent, painful urination. If infection reach the kidneys (acute pyelonephritis), symptoms include upper back and side (flank) pain, high fever, shaking and chills and nausea.

How UTI starts
In general the urinary tract can be infected from “above/up” (by bacteria entering the kidneys from the bloodstream and travelling downward) or from “below/down” (by bacteria entering the urethra and travelling upward).
In most cases the infection starts from “below-down”. Girls could become prone to UTI's
through wiping back-to-front when they are first toilet-trained, which pulls stool into the vaginal area. Sexually active teenage and adult women are more prone to UTI's because of friction at the meatus, which tends to push bacteria into the urethra (urinating after intercourse helps avoid UTI's).
Infection from “above/up” can be observed in newborns - if there are many bacteria in the
bloodstream. This is especially likely if the kidney filters are immature, or if there are a lot of
bacteria.

Who is at risk for UTI?
Some people are more prone to getting a UTI than others. Any abnormality of the urinary tract that obstructs the flow of urine (a kidney stone, for example) sets the stage for an infection.
Many women start suffering from UTI after intercourse. The most common is after first time
sex. Sexual intercourse seems to trigger an infection, although the reasons for this linkage are unclear. One factor may be that a woman's urethra is short, allowing bacteria quick access to the bladder. Also, a woman's urethral opening is near sources of bacteria from the anus and vagina.
In adult women, though, the rate of UTIs gradually increases with age.
A common source of infection is catheters, or tubes, placed in the urethra and bladder. In
most cases catheters and tubes are used in hospitals (medical conditions).
People with diabetes have a higher risk of a UTI because of changes in the immune system.
Any other disorder that suppresses the immune system raises the risk of a urinary infection.

UTI Treatment
UTI treatment should be done by health providers (preferably by qualified doctors). Antibiotics are the typical treatment for UTI. Often, a UTI can be cured with 1 or 2 days of treatment if the infection is not complicated by an obstruction or other disorder. Still, many doctors ask their patients to take antibiotics for a week or two to ensure that the infection has been cured. Longer treatment is also needed by patients with infections caused by Mycoplasma or Chlamydia.

UTI Recurrent
Many women suffer from frequent UTIs. Some women have UTI chronically - women who have had UTI about 3-4 times are on the risk to have it more. Four out of five such women get another within 18 months of the last UTI. Many women have them even more often.
Nearly 20 percent of women who have a UTI will have another one and 30 percent of those will have yet another. Of the last group, 80 percent will have recurrences.

How avoid the UTI
? Drink plenty of water every day.
? Urinate when you feel the need; don't resist the urge to urinate.
? Wipe from front to back to prevent bacteria around the anus from entering the vagina or urethra.
? Take showers instead of tub baths.
? Cleanse the genital area before sexual intercourse.
? Avoid using feminine hygiene sprays and scented douches, which may irritate the urethra.
? Drink cranberry juice.

Medical Study



It is probably a bladder infection, but if you are sexually active it could be sexually transmitted.
You gotta tell someone to get treated for this. If you don't you could die.
You don't have to mention masturbation or sex to your mother. Just tell her the problem. You can get a bladder infection anytime and they are not sexually transmitted. Bacteria from the outside can get into you through the urethra. No reason for embarrassment there. Telling your mom is more acceptable than death, so just tell her it will be ok. I promise.
I have had them before and the symptoms were exactly the same as you are having. It will not go away without treatment though.



it could definitely have to do with masturbation if you masturbate like 20 time a day. If you do that, i would recommend trying to cut it down to only like 5 times a day.. You can do this by staying away from things that remind you of sex, like bananas and cucumbers. Also try not to have unprotected sex to fulfill the urge of masturbation, because let's be honest, it was probably unprotected sex that gave you this disease in the first place. And yes, you most likely have an STD.



I'm really sorry, but if you want to work this out, you HAVE to let someone know. It can be embarassing, but hey, it's better than running to the bathroom and peeing all the time, don't you think?



it sounds like you have a urinary tract infection (UTI). the frequent urination and needing to go even when there is no very much urine in your bladder are symptoms of a UTI.
for which you will need to see a doctor because if it is a UTI, it will not clear up without antibiotics. the doctor will do a simple urine test, to see if it is a UTI and give you some antibiotics to take. if it is a UTI, and you do not get treatment, it could worsen to a kidney infection, for which you may need hospitalisation and intravenous antibiotics.
why are you so against telling your mum or doctor? a UTI can be caused by many different things, and you will not get into trouble for having a medical problem
