go to the doctor and give him a urine sample could be an infection, simple antibiotics will help it once they find out what it is.

You really need to go get treated by your PCP or a gyno because it can be super easy to treat or can get very serious.
Vaginal discharge, itching, and burning are common symptoms of the various forms of vaginitis. Although the symptoms of these infections can be very similar, there are some differences to look for in the color and smell of the discharge.
here's some examples....
*Trichomoniasis* causes a frothy vaginal discharge that may be yellow-green or gray, itching and irritation of the genitals, burning with urination (sometimes confused with a urinary tract infection), discomfort during intercourse, and a foul smell. Because trichomoniasis is a sexually transmitted disease, symptoms may appear within 4-20 days after exposure. Men rarely have symptoms, but if they do, they may have a thin, whitish discharge from the penis and painful or difficult urination.
*Yeast infections or candidiasis cause a thick, whitish-gray "cottage cheese" type of vaginal discharge and may be itchy
*Bacterial vaginosis (BV) causes an abnormal vaginal discharge with an unpleasant odor. Some women report a strong fishlike smell, especially after intercourse. The discharge is usually white or gray. It can be thin. You may also have burning during urination or itching around the outside of the vagina, or both. Some women with BV have no symptoms at all.
Pain itself is not a frequent symptom (except for the itching) and should prompt you to see your health care provider.

I agree with most of the other answers, a urinary tract infection or a yeast infection. You should see your GYN as soon as possible, because he'll probably prescribe an antibiotic. Drink more water and cranberry juice in your diet. Keep that area down there really clean! And you know, we ladies have to wipe from front to back, not the other way, to keep bacteria away from the area. By the way, after you shower and keep the area clean, a little cornstarch in the area always helped me.

To me, it sounds like a TERRIBLE yeast infection. It's common this time of the year because of it being hot outside. Go to your doctor and they will find out the best solution for you. That can be taking pills such as Diflucan, using a perscribed cream with Miconazole in it, using an over the counter cream such as Monistat, or even painting your vagina and the vulva (outside) area with Gentian Violet. I recommend the Gentian Violet, though 'cause the doctor paints ya and that's it. There's no reapplication or anything. It does stain clothes though. So, that's the only downside to it. It's considered to be a miracle drug for yeast infections, whether they be vaginal, on your skin, or in your mouth. I just had it done yesterday and I feel better already. :)
