Urinary tract infection or inflammation of the urethra. What will help is drinking water with bicarbonate of soda - baking soda. To a glass of warm water, add a 1/2 teaspoon to a full teaspoon of baking soda, stir to dissolve the baking soda and drink quickly the full glass. Then prepare another glass to continue sipping for the next few hours.
When you get that burning sensation it is usually from inflammation and that inflammation tends to be acidic, so it will burn. Drinking the bicarb in water helps to alkalize your urine and reduce the inflammation.
If it does not go away after 24-48 hours, then you must see a doctor. This can occur after having sex, from the rubbing/stimulation if you aren't properly lubricated, or if you were a little enthusiastic. It can also be irritation from too tight pants, irritation from detergent left in the underwear after laundering, it can follow periods if you wear tampons or pads, both can cause irritation to the area that may result in inflammation.
What will provide some relief immediately is sitting in a warm bath and letting the warm water flow. Now, if you don't have a bathtub, you can get a pitcher of warm water, sit on the toilet and pour the water over yourself - warm water only, not cold, that can be a little startling, and warm water is comforting. You can also add baking soda to that water to help relieve some of the inflammation.
If it starts to be relieved from the warm water - either bathing or drinking then it may just be inflammation. You can purchase a remedy at the pharmacy - Uristat, which is a non-prescription remedy for urinary inflammation - it REALLY helps. But again, if it persists, then you must see a doctor, if no relief in 48 hours, then you need to get to a medical professional.
