Hi,
Thanks for discussing your problem with us.
Pain & burning while passing urine are recognized signs of blood in urine then the presence of stones somewhere in the urinary tract is another possibility. This may explain the reason of repeated UTIs.
However, you must understand that this has to be confirmed by certain "tests", before a final diagnosis can be made. You should have at least a Urine detailed report & an ultrasound KUB (kidney, ureter, bladder) to clarify the picture.
Please make sure that you are not having post menopausal bleeding (from your vagina). In that case a Gynecologist visit is mandatory.
Using saliva as a lubricant is not usually associated with an increased risk of UTI unless the person using his saliva has some active oral infection, bad oral or general hygiene.
Hope I have addressed your concerns please write back if you want to discuss this further.
Wish you good health & a happy day.
Regards.
