Definitely it can be P.I.D. which includes bladder infection also.You should go for a ultrasound of lower abdomen to see if there is any fluid in POD.This may confirm/rule out any PID.You are also required to go for a routine analysis of urine as well as culture of the urine.You may be having some retained piece of placenta after delivery of your baby.you should consult a gynaecologist if required,she may advise you a T.V.S. which may confirm any retained piece of placenta.
