Hi,
Yes, You certainly need to get a few tests done.
There is a good possibility that you have only a like a malignancy.
You should get a complete urine analysis done, along with urine for culture and sensitivity in case infection is confirmed. An ultrasound examination of the bladder is essential, and you might need a cystoscopy which is an office based endoscopic examination of your urinary tract depending on what these investigations reveal.
Hope I have been able to help.
Let me know how you progress.
Regards.
