My boyfriend's brother made a highly scented massage oil and sent him one. He thought it could be used as a lubricant too. We used it twice and it burned! I complained about it and he told his brother and he said "it's for external use only" not a lube! Since then I am having symptoms of a UTI. Pain when urinating, darker urine with the cloudiness, pain in my left kidney area in front and back, feeling not well, etc. I'm going to the doctor but wonder if anyone else has used things like massage oils, lotion or anything else that's not meant to be for sex and actually got a UTI?
Uh no. You used it twice after it burned the first time?! Would stay with lubes that are meant for lubrication from a reputable company.
I've always been told by my urologist to never use anything perfumed in the bath or shower.- I only use Simple shower gel - so it's quite probably the oil that's caused your problem.
Hope you get on OK at the doctor's and he is able to help. Good luck.
Yes, it's a UTI and she believes the oil was the reason. I'm on antibiotics and pain medication. We're putting the massage oil away from the bed so it doesn't get confused with the lubricant.
