Brief Answer:
Do you urinate in small or large quantities?

Detailed Answer:
Hi thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this pain and the changes in urination that you have reported. These could point to a possible urinary tract infection. However, I will like to know whether you feel any pain during urination, urinate more often that usual in small quantities or not. This is because urination from increases water consumption would lead to increased volume of urine but an infection will cause frequent urination in small quantities accompanied by pain. Let me know which applies to you.

Until then, I wish you well.

Brief Answer:
Observe only for now!

Detailed Answer:
Hi.,

This is most likely linked to increase fluid consumption. I will say observe only for now. My expectation is that this will resolve spontaneously. Also, report any further worrisome changes to me for evaluation and more insights.

I wish you well.
