I am not a physician (yet), but I would assume urine would burn the skin because it is too acidic. Acidic urine can be the result of many physiological disorders (improper kidney function, high blood gas levels of carbon dioxide, etc.), so it is therefore important to contact your physician to determine the source of the problem, as several tests would likely need to be performed. Of course, there could also be an entirely different reason... some sort of skin disorder could be involved. Again, no one cause can be pinned down without seeing a physician. |

You need to have a doctor do a urinalysis to make sure you don't have a urinary tract infection (UTI). If you do and it's untreated, it may spread up to your kidneys and cause an infection there (pyelonephritis). There are other possible causes of burning with urination, so your doctor should evaluate you. |
