Is Masturbation Advisable When Diagnosed With UTI?

Is it okay to masterbate whilst having a UTI? I’m not sure if I have one, tho my doctor did give me some antibiotics just to be sure(and sent my urine back to the lab for more tests). I’m a woman, if that helps. Using a sex toy with a condom won’t hurt/damage anything, right?
