Please see a specialist for blood test to check for infection.
Are you taking only Metformin or some other medicine ??
Also check your urine routine & microscopic for Sugar or albumin or some other metabolite !
Metformin only can not cause any such side effects...unless you are taking SGLT2 such as EMPAGLIFLOZIN along with Metformin which can cause such problem s such as UTI.
Or else as suggested by Sandybrown to see a specialist to rule out possible infections .....
Are you taking any strong antibiotics?
Make a list of your medication and check for side effects!!

What were your blood sugars before and after having your wisdom tooth surgery? If you have surgery-- or other health issues (sick), then the numbers may go up and down constantly and can sometimes cause infections. Please call the doctor for a follow up appointment and let them know what you had told us.
Men can get yeast infection of the genitals. Yeast organisms are a common cause of infection of the tip of the penis, a condition called balanitis.
Diabetic patients are more prone to fungal infections. Sugar is the best medium for fungal infections. The conditions such as darkness, wet area and heat are necessary for the growth of fungus. Skin irritation is the primary symptom.
Apply clotrimazole cream IP 1% (Canesten or Canesten-S) topically.
