OB-GYN (Obstetrician-Gynecologist) Questions OB-GYN

Is this something to be worried about?

Recently I woke up in the middle of the night due to sharp pains in my cervix. It is a persisting pain. This past week I have been having extreme vaginal discharge. I soak through my underwear and pants. It is clear and watery. I also have not been able to stop urinating. The minute I urinate I feel the urge to pee again.

The pain is persistent and very painful. Is this something I need to worry about? Can I do something to help with the pain?

You probably have uti you need to see your gyn/pcp
Yes, this needs to be investigated. This could actually be a vaginal/cervical infection that needs to be treated; it could also mean a serious bladder issue or infection that needs to be checked, cultured and then treated. In either case, you likely need to see you primary MD or your OB-GYN; I feel strongly that every woman needs to have a GYN MD who can help them with the female issues that could happen to them, esp if your GYN is a female herself.
You need to be seen at your dr office or urgent care. May have a urinary tract infection.
You need to be checked out. You may have cervicitis and also may have an STD. You could even have a urinary tract infection.
