Should I go to the doctor for this?

Yesterday I awoke to find that I have UTI (at least I'm pretty sure it is, it burns when I pee and there was a tiny little bit of blood and all that nice stuff) and it hurt really bad. My family's kind of a "let your body get rid of it" family when it comes to being sick or whatever and I rarely visit the doctor besides for anual checkups, so I read on the condition and tried a few home remedies. I drank baking soda in water, drank large amounts of water per hour, took an advil for the pain (which surprisingly worked) I ate blueberries, and by my mom's advice I used a vaginal douche. Today I woke up and used the bathroom and it still burns when I pee, but it didn't burn as bad and there was no blood. My lower pain is nearly gone as well. Should I go to the doctor for this since it lasted longer than 24 hours or should I just try the same things until it fades away?
