You do not need to see a doctor.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for using Healthcare Magic.
If your symptoms disappear then it will not be necessary to visit your doctor. You do not mention what your symptoms are but if they should appear again then I would suggest you do see your doctor. There is a possibility that they may be due to another cause for example a pulled muscle may give you pain in the loin area, similar to a urinary infection.
Hope this helps you. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Brief Answer:
Suggest you see a doctor.

Detailed Answer:
HI,
Thank you for the further more detailed information.
It would appear that you may have difficulty in passing urine due to blockage by a clot then when you have strained you have passed the clot. This has then allowed you to pass urine more easily but, in passing the clot, you have caused a bit of inflammation which is why it feels sensitive.
There are a few possibilities for these symptoms. It may be a stone as you mention. It may be some problem with the lining of your bladder which has caused inflammation and bleeding.
I would suggest you need to seek the advice of a urologist who may wish to examine your bladder more closely with a cystoscopy.
My advice has changed from my first reply as I was unclear what your symptoms had been. Thank you for the clarification.
I hope this has helped you. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
