Hi ! Good morning. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

There is a possibility that the feeling might be due to some kind of inflammation/infection in the pelvic organs which could have been started by the act of yours. If I were your doctor, I would advise you for a routine and microscopic urine test followed by a culture sensitivity of the urine if need be and treat the same accordingly. Before jumping onto any other investigation, I would go for a general physical examination of yours with special attention to your lower abdomen, a gynaecological check up if thought necessary , and an ultrasound of abdomen at the end. Till then, I would advise you to go for an anti inflammatory drug along with a proton pump inhibitor for a symptomatic relief.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.

Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
