I've been feeling a burning sensation when I pee, and it's there even when I'm not using the bathroom. I keep feeling like I need to go all the time. This has been going on for the past couple of days. What could be causing this?
You may have a urinary tract infection (UTI). I recommend taking antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin or Nitrofurantoin to treat the infection. Additionally, you can take Phenazopyridine to help relieve the burning sensation during urination. Remember to drink plenty of water to help flush out the bacteria causing the infection.
