Brief Answer:
Yes. Infection needs to be ruled out.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The constant burning on decreasing the fluid intake can be due to a concentrated urine or due to a urinary infection. It is best to get a routine urine examination done to rule out the infection.
Increase your fluid intake and have plenty of cranberry juice to reduce the symptoms.a
