What Is The Treatment For Urinary Tract Infection?

I think I have a UTI. I have a constant urge to urinate but hardly any pee comes out. I am able to pee some but the urge never goes away. I m also very swollen and could hardly get my rings off which is unusual. Could a UTI cause swelling? I don t have a burning sensation when I pee but there s a lot of pressure after I relieve myself which hurts.
