What Causes Burning Sensation During Urination?

default
Posted on Wed, 26 Oct 2016
Question: Hi, I picked up a bad case of conjunctivitis (pink eye) about 5 days ago. I went to an eye doctor who prescribed eye drops. It is helping, but slowly. I've subsequently noticed a burning sensation when I urinate, so I am wondering if I might have picked up chlamydia or a urinary tract infection, and if these symptoms could be related?
