Is Urinary Track Infection Common After Colonoscopy?

Is it possible to get a urinary track infection following a colonoscopy? I had my first colonoscopy last Friday. I have felt like I have a bladder infection. Hurts right above my pubic bone along my hair line. I still have gas and my system is not working correctly yet so maybe it is residual pain.
