Brief Answer:
Likely to be due to the antibiotic you are taking for UTI
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome and thanks for your query.
I understand your concern.
The doctor must have put you on an antibiotic.
Many antibiotics produce irritation / inflammation of the stomach and intestines.
You can take a PPI and an anti flatulent like Dysflatyl which will relieve your symptoms.
