Hi,
Alright, so here's the deal. I am a highly active teenager. I run and play all kinds of intense sports, most recently track. I am not sexually active. After an especially tough track season, I contracted a UTI. Not sure what caused it, but my mother is very prone to them so I'm assuming that I am as well. Anyways, my symptoms were very mild, but I probably had this UTI for much longer than I realized. No burning, no pelvic pain. Just a strong urge to pee every once in a while. I only suspected something was wrong because of how little came out and how strong the urge was.
Fast forward a little and I go to the doctor and get tested (positive for UTI, obviously) and get on antibiotics. They feel like they're working fine and all that, but I still had a nagging discomfort. Nothing unmanageable, but a little uncomfortable, even after I finish the antibiotics. I was also on antibiotics for a chest cold issue at the time, which went a week past my UTI antibiotics. Well, a week or so after both of these antibiotic rounds are over, I start feeling urges to pee again! I just thought I was being a worry wart at first, but something felt pretty off, so I went back to the doctor and got tested. No UTI! But I still had the same type symptoms, granted they were much less.
To describe them, I mostly feel an uncomfortable sensation in my urethra. Like I have to go pee pretty bad, but my urethra is the only place I feel it. Sometimes it kinda spasms and the best description would be that it feels like something is dropping down it. Not sure if that makes sense. After I pee, I have this powerful urge and it feels like there's more to give, but there really isn't. I just don't know what this is. It's nothing unmanageable, but it's irritating. Is this something I need to be worried about? I am going to wait another couple weeks and see if it goes away. I don't want to live like this forever. I've been having these urinary issues for like a month or so and it's getting old. Any help would be appreciated.
