Hi thanks for your question.
You had UTI for which you recived treatment but your still having burning sensation after urination ,more so if you take water.
Most probably you UTI was incompletely treated.
You need consultation with a physician to treat your UTI completely.
You may also need culture of your urine.
Reason for more buruning of urine after taking waater is simple,the more water you will take ,more will be the need to go for urination and more burining.water helps in alkalization of urine ,which decreases burning ,but helps oly when infection is also treated simultanously.
Hope this answers your question.
