I dont know what it is..Help

A urinary tract infection perhaps?
-
what is that exactly?
-
A bacterial infection of the urinary tract. It's treated with antibiotics.
-
so its not like an std or anything?do you know how it can be caused?
-
its a bacteria that gets into your urethra.
-
Urinary tract infections often happen as a result of sex, because the thrusting can push bacteria up the urethra. (It's especially common in women.) However, it's not generally considered an STD.
-
do you know what would happen if it went untreated?
-
Untreated, the bacteria can make it up into your bladder. From there it can get into your kidneys which would be a very bad thing. A doctor can test for a UTI through a simple urine test and if positive, antibiotics do the trick. Better to get it treated since it is cery simple to diagnose and treat.
