Detailed Answer:
HI XXXX

Greeting from Dr. Divakara.P
First of all thanks for choosing Healthcaremagic for posting your query.


Apart from UTI , I think you also have a genital infection which requires additional medications apart from Macrobid.

Genital infections could be caused due to Bacteria, Virus or Fungus . It requires a examination and certain tests like Vaginal swab Aetobic , anaerobic and fungal culture sensitivity test.

My advise to you is to consult a gynecologist , get examined and get the above mentioned test done .

Hope this information was useful to you.
Any clarifications feel free to ask .

Regards.

I have a uti, but this slight burning/itching feeling just came about. It's red on the inside lips of my lower region but no discharge, now yellow pee, almost back to normal with little uti symptoms.

Brief Answer:
It is Genital Infection.

Detailed Answer:
HI

Yes , an UTI can spread around and cause Genital Infection . Simple UTI will not cause any redness in or around genital region .

Hence it's a genital infection which needs proper examination and evaluation.

Kindly consult a gynaecologist , get examined and get the above mentioned test done.

If getting an appointment with Gynaecologist is not possible soon , consult a local doctor and ask for a prescription of Betnovate-C cream and use it . It shall help you .

Any clarifications feel free to ask .
