Good morning!
I would get checked out as SOON as it starts to get painful. Anything genital or in that area has a tendency to "go away" by the time we are ready to head to the doctor's. So best if you were checked right away, not a few days later.
My second worry is that it is not UTI at all. Could it be vaginal? I had "yeast infections" for near 2 years every month for about 3 weeks out of the month, Could not play, sex, walk, sit, and I was red, swollen, burning, dry, hurt when I peed, etc. They kept diagnosing me as Yest infections with all sorts of meds. Finally went to a GYN-not family doc and after another 6 months found out it was hormones. I was dry and that was causing friction(not even sex friction but walking, sitting friction!!)-esp when around your period when the vaginal ph's change. I am more suseptible to the changes than most women. They put me on that pill that gives you 4 periods a year to starighten out my hormone level and next year I go for hormone testing if it still hurts. But so far has not. I am 37 and in pre-menopause, do you think that could it? Your body changing?
It got to the point where I was limping, lay back, hitched up that blanket and said "look, I am red and I HURT!" And yeah she saw but again everything checked out normal. And if they have to test you for everything-let them, I was so ashamed they tested me for all the STD's and I had not had sex for 2 years but at that point-the pain wins. Meantime, try AZO yeast tablets, 3x a day, they take the peak off the pain and I also use the Walmart brand of hydrocortisone for vaginas-cannot rememebr the name...vagi-something. It's upstairs. Use it on your lips and clit but not inside, takes the sting away. But yes, have them check it RIGHT afterwards. Good luck!
Love,
