What Causes Frequent Urination With Burning Sensation?
Hi, My cousin sister Today in the morning ate a banana, cucumber, apple and drank 2 glasses of hot water. she is urinating every 2mins. And once she urinates she again feels the urge to urinate. This is continuing since 3hours. Now she is complaining of getting a little burning sensation there. I dont know what to do. yesterday night she had a little stomach pain and i gave her ENO to drink and a banana for that. It got cured. Now i dont understand what to do with this problem of hers. She is tired of going to toilet. Please suggest is there something wrong? What should i do? Does it has something to do with the rainy season which just started yesterday?

Welcome to HCM. I understand your concern and I read your question carefully.
I would like to know the age of the girl. Let's suppose she is an adult. From the information you gave, like urgency of urination, burning sensation and stomach pain (i suppose below the belly button) it might be a beginning of lower urinary tract infection. Today's practice is to delay the use of antibiotics for 24 hours, if the clinical picture allows it.
First of all I would advice to my patients to drink a lot of fluids to promote a dilute urine flow. If she has an intense burning sensation during urination i recommend using a bladder analgesic like phenazopyridine for 1-2 days and not anymore (if she is not allergic to sulfa medication). The first line antibiotic treatment is Bactrim (trimethoprim/sulfamethoxasole).
I think with the advises I gave you above she will be fine. But, in case that her symptoms persist or will get worse (especially if are associated with fever), I recommend doing some workup: urinalysis, urine culture, ultrasound of the abdomen and kidneys.
I hope my answer was informative to you and I wish to the girl fast recovery. Best regards
