For the past 6-7 years I have had issues
off and on. Pain/almost burning when I
start to urinate and then it hurts a
little less once going, sometimes last
couple drops has red/blood tint. But it
happens very randomly, one day it will be
fine and the the next 3 days it will hurt
every time I go and then not hurt for a
week, just feels like a strong pressure
instead of hurting. Also every once and a
while I will have to go every hour for 1-2
days then its fine for a few weeks to a
month.
I always figured it was a urinary track
infection because I had one when I was
like 10 and it seemed about the same
symptoms but I have been too scared to go
to the doctor since this started. Any
ideas? Also i don't know if it has
anything to do with it but I have lower
back pain most the time but I have just
associated that with my back being a
little tweaked from a car accident.
It started getting bad again a couple
weeks ago and I am concerned but still
kind of freaked out to go to the doctor
every since I did when I was little. and
by the way I am a virgin so I don't think
it can be any kind of std.

Sounds like a UTI to me. I've also had
bad experiences with the doctor. I passed
out from getting blood drawn. A calming
and emotionally caring medical staff can
help. After I passed out, I still needed
to get 1 more tube drawn and a kind nurse
talked to me while drawing the blood and
it was over before I knew it.

It definitely sounds like a Urinary Tract
Infection.
You have to see a doctor. I know it can
get kinda scary... with a doctor poking
and prodding down there, and blood tests
and stuff. But just think: Doctors do this
kind of stuff all the time.
