Is Persistent Itching And Back Pain Sign For UTI?

Hello, I had symptoms of UTI last week after getting Brazilian wax and intercourse. It burned when I peed, I had to go to the bathroom constantly, and one time there was blood though very little in my pee. The burning went away after three days, but now it s just itching down there. I also have back pain. Is this still a UTI or a yeast infection, or is it something more serious? I am 19 years old and I m afraid of a kidney infection. I don t have any vomiting issues though. Only constant itching and back pain. Thank you

I understand your concern about your symptoms. Usually urinary tract infection causes burning with urination and frequent urination. The only way to tell it to go to a doctor and have your urine checked. The itching may be from something like yeast or could be from a sexually transmitted infection. The back pain is not likely related. I would suggest you see a doctor and get your urine checked and get a pelvic exam to look for infections. Good luck and I hope you feel better soon.
