Get urine checked : Sometimes burning, or dysuria, can occur with dehydration but may also occur with infection. Good idea to see your doctor to get urine checked and culture sent to assess for infection. In the meantime work hard on fluid intake and hydration

Dysuria: Pain on urination is a common symptom of urinary tract infection. This should be checked out with a urine culture. Meanwhile, drink lots of clear fluids (water!) 6 to 8 cups to help flush the system. Sometimes this is enough to stop simple urinary tract infections, but I strongly recommend a culture.
