Symptom: Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)

A urinary tract infection is an infection that can occur in any area of the urinary tract, including the ureters, bladder, kidneys, or urethra. Bladder infections (cystitis) and urethra infections (urethritis) are most common.Picture of the urinary tract
Urinary tract infections can be categorized as either simple or complicated.
  • Simple UTIs occur in healthy people with normal urinary tracts. This is the type of UTI that occurs most frequently in women.
  • Complicated UTIs occur in individuals with abnormal urinary tracts or when antibiotics are unable to treat the bacteria causing the infection. Men and children are more likely to have this type of UTI.

    • A urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection that occurs when bacteria enters into any part of the urinary tract, including the kidneys, ureters, bladder, or urethra.
    • Risk factors for urinary tract infections include being female, menopause, wiping from back to front after a bowel movement, sexual intercourse, some types of birth control, douches, diabetes, urinary catheters, kidney stones, genitourinary surgery, or structural abnormalities of the urinary tract.
    • UTI symptoms and signs include
      • pain or burning when urinating,
      • frequent urination,
      • sudden urge to urinate,
      • frequent urge to urinate without much urine passing,
      • urine that is milky/cloudy/bloody/foul smelling.
    • See a doctor for diagnosis because some types of UTIs can be serious to life-threatening conditions.
    • UTIs are usually treated with antibiotics.
    • Most cases of UTIs go away with treatment, but in some cases, people have recurrent urinary tract infections.
    • Serious UTIs may lead to scarring of the urinary tract or pyelonephritis (kidney infection).
