Brief Answer:
First confirm UTI.
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXX and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, let me assure you that UTI, is diagnosed by doing urine routine and culture test. You can see an Urologist in the meantime and get an expert examination done, to know for sure, if you can wait two weeks, without treatment.
Maintain good penile hygiene and avoid intercourse in that time.
Wish you well.
