New issues

Unread post by sara26 »

So just recently my pee was smelling very strong and it would hurt a little to pee so I asked a nurse about it and she said to drink lots of water to flush my system. That kinda worked. Not too long after that I would pee, feel the need to pee 20 minutes later and only a little would come out and it hurt a little bit then again in another 20 minutes and it hurt and only a little came out. I kept drinking a lot of water and would obviously pee a lot because I was drinking a lot of water, this took away the pain. But now I'm noticing that I get these sudden urges to pee and I can't hold it but not even a lot comes out, like I shouldn't be able to not hold that amount for a few more seconds...
I'm not sure if this is linked to anything but I have a almost circular itchy spot on my leg.
I'm not really sure what's going on with my body...

It sounds like you might be dealing with a UTI, so it is time to be seen by a doctor.

So I have been taking amoxicillin since wednesday and just now when I was peeing a big clump of im not sure what came out of my vagina? It looked yellow like my pee but in the water it was a pinky colour and looked gooey and when I wiped the paper had the pinky colour on it too. Just wondering if that is normal while taking amoxicillin cause it's never happened before.

It could be you're just having some spotting, but since you're being treated for a UTI it wouldn't hurt to check in with your doctor about it.
