Brief Answer:
Yes, you need test.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thank You for consulting HealthcareMagic!

Yes, you need test. Most probably your symptoms may be due to urinary tract infection. Firstly, you need a complete urine examination with which we can identify whether it is due to urinary tract infection. If this is positive you may need sensitive antibiotic course. If negative, further investigation with ultrasound etc are needed.
