Hi,
Welcome to healthcare magic

I have read and can understand your concern but what you are telling is a perfectly normal phenomenon and there is nothing to worry about it, as the climate is hot outside there is considerable amount of loss of body water so body tends to retain the water by absorption in kidneys which lead to concentrated urine with more salts than water causing burning whereas when you drink plenty of water the water is in excess which is excreted and the urine is diluted, so I suggest you to have plenty of water to avoid dehydration...But if there is moderate to severe pain during urination it can be due to urinary tract infection for which you can simply take tab.norfloxacin for 5 days with plenty of water intake.....As of now there is no need to worry and take any medication adequate intake of water is sufficient.

Hope I have been able to solve your query.

Regards,

Dr.Tushar Tamboli
