Why does it hurt after I urinate?


K, I'm only a 16 year old girl, a sophmore, but I seem to be having problems that I thought only people in their middle ages & up would get. Ever since last night, I've been going to the bathroom & ONLY after I got done peeing, I would get a pain where I think my bladder is. & I kno I'm not peeing blood cuz my urine comes out fine so I kno the blood is from me having my period which I'm supposed to be having around this time [I don't exactly keep track of my period. Just kno when its gonna start]. & I never had ANY type of sex, especially since I'm straight edge [no drugs, no alcohol, no sex til marriage life vow for u all that don't kno wut straight edge is] so I kno that can't be a factor. I have no clue on whats going on & its only been since LAST NIGHT!!! I've been completely fine besides a few colds here & there for the past 3 years & the only problem I ever had with abdominal problems was when I had ovarion sist in 7th garde & appendisitis in 6th grade. Plz help me!!!!

its only hurts AFTER I pee!!! AFTER, alright?! not WHEN! AFTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Go to the doc you may have a bladder infection.

What is it?
A bladder infection is an inflammation of the urinary bladder. The inner lining of the bladder becomes inflamed, and the urine becomes full of bacteria.

Who gets it?
Bladder infections are more common among women than men because of their shorter urethra, making it easer for bacteria from the anus or genital area to reach the bladder. Bladder infections often occur in young women who have just become sexually active and have sexual intercourse often. In addition, bladder infections can occur anytime the flow of urine is blocked or emptying of the bladder is incomplete due to an enlarged prostate in men or pregnancy in women.

What causes it?
Bacteria that have traveled up the urethra and into the bladder usually cause bladder infections. The most common bacteria associated with bladder infections in women include Escherichia coli (about eighty percent of cases), Staphylococcus saprophyticus , Klebsiella, Enterobacter , and Proteus species. Risk factors include sexual intercourse, use of a diaphragm for birth control, an abnormally short urethra, diabetes or chronic dehydration, the absence of a specific enzyme in vaginal secretions, inadequate personal hygiene and pregnancy.

In males, bladder infections are often the result of kidney complications or prostate infections. Bladder infections in men are most likely to be caused by E. coli or another gram-negative bacterium.

What are the symptoms?
Symptoms of a bladder infection in both men and women include painful urination, a sudden strong desire to urinate, an increase in the frequency of urination, cloudy urine that spells bad, and blood in the urine. Large quantities of blood in the urine may be caused by an acute bladder infection. Many patients also experience fever, pain in the lower back, nausea and vomiting and shaking chills.

How is it diagnosed?
To diagnose a bladder infection, the doctor will examine the patient and may test both the blood and urine. A laboratory test of the urine will reveal if bacteria is present, which usually indicates infection. The doctor may also examine the patient鈥檚 abdomen and lower back to check for bladder or kidney enlargements.

Female patients may also require a pelvic examination. Female patients with a reoccurring infection may also be given an ultrasound test of the kidneys and bladder to check for structural abnormalities.

Sounds like you may have a urinary infection. Drink lots of cranberrry juice and hat should help you. Boost your immune system...

if urination is painful and there is hurting sensation
and urine colour is darker and there is renal cramps
and some times one or two drops of blood in urine all of this
indicate that you have stone
dont worry it is not dangerous
but you must
1- drink alot of fluid
2- avoid urine retention
3- avoid spicey food
4- worm your body well
and make urine analysis
to detect the kind of salt in your urine to take the suitable treatment you and know that you mustnot take the medicine
if the presentage of salt is not alot

Yes to me it sounds like you have a urinary tract infection. Drinking lots of water and cranberry juice is good to prevent them and once you have one but it wont take it away. You need to be seen for a Dr. for anitbiotics, don't worry they are there to help lots of ppl have them. Have you ever had a pap before from the gyno? I know I got a urinary tract infection after my first one. You def should go to the Dr. and don't be ashamed or worried to tell your parents just tell them the pain you have been having and they will get you an appt. This has nothing to do with whether you have or had not had sex either b/c even babies can get them! So don't be worried about ppl thinking that either. I hope you feel better

if you experience pain when you urinate you may have a bladder infection it can be easily fixed with antibiotics and plenty of water if detected early so i suggest you go and see your dr to get a professional opinion that way you'll know exactly what your dealing with to get the correct treatment as soon as possible

Chill out, hon. It's most likely just a urinary tract infection-a bladder infection. That's exactly when it hurts, right after you pee. I have them all the time-just lucky I guess. You haven't done anything wrong, but you do need to go to the doctor and get a urinalysis-just pee in a cup, and in a little bit you'll probably get your answer. If I'm right, they'll put you on antibiotics. I would advise you to eat yogurt while you're on the antibiotic, so you won't get a yeast infection. If you don't know what that is, it's an infection you get in your vaginal tissues, frequently because the antibiotics kill off the helpful bacteria in the area. Believe me, you do not want first-hand knowledge of this. If you get an antibiotic, eat some yogurt. Go to the doctor. I don't think it's anything serious-unless you let it go, then it can get serious, cause damage to your urinary tract and kidneys.
