Suggest Treatment For Burning Sensation While Urinating And UTI

Hi, I think I have had a UTI brewing for about 3 days. I have had increased frequency with the urge to urinate and today and yesterday a burning sensation while I pee. Once today there was blood in my urine. I have been drinking a lot of water and cranberry juice, and this seems to be helping. I haven t seen any more blood, but it still burns when I pee. I m travelling out of the country in the morning, and I m not sure if this is something that will go away on its own, or if I need to seek medical care.
