Brief Answer:
Monitor only. Drink much water!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks so much for this query.

I have reviewed the information fully and it is not suggestive of any specific disease condition. There is no need to worry as there could not be anything that we are missing at this time. If it were an infection, pain and increased urination in small volumes would have accompanied this. These are all absent.

For now, drink much water. Monitor the odor and color and report to me. Unless something else comes up, this should normally regress spontaneously.

I hope this guides and helps. I wish you well. Feel free to follow up with me if need be.
