HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is unlikely that the weight gain in that short time period is fat, it may be related to fluid retention or bloating.
You may need imaging of your abdomen to determine the cause of your pain if it is continues despite treatment.
The bladder infection or stone can cause pain so one of these are the likely cause.
I hope this helps
