You may have: Yeast infection from taking antibiotics or a secondary infection. Or it could be from swelling and sensitivity from the antibiotic itself. Hopefully ur UTI is better by now. If the sensitivity continues please see a healthcare professional for an exam and treatment. Thanks for trusting HealthTap !

I have a swollen vaginal lip but just one side. It's quite stingy and itchy amd my pee was dark this morning. Could this be a uti?

Probably not: Dark urine in the morning is normal as we concentrate the urine overnight. Sounds more like a vaginitis.
