Urinary tract infection - Symptoms, Causes, Complications, Prevention and Treatment
By Pace Hospitals December 15, 2023
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a collective term given to various bacterial infections that occur in the urinary tract. UTI infection is overwhelmingly seen in women, it is not a gynaecological disease, as this disease is also seen in men but less frequently. Nevertheless, with an appropriate antibiotic, UTI rapidly responds to antibiotic therapy prescribed by a urologist.

A urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common condition caused by bacteria entering the urinary system, resulting in inflammation and infection. UTIs are classified into lower UTIs, affecting the bladder and urethra, and upper UTIs, involving the kidneys and ureters, with Escherichia coli (E. coli) being the most frequent culprit. Symptoms include a strong urge to urinate, painful or burning sensations during urination, cloudy or foul-smelling urine, and lower abdominal pain. Risk factors encompass poor hygiene, sexual activity, dehydration, and certain medical conditions. Diagnosis is typically confirmed through a urine test, and treatment usually involves antibiotics. Preventive measures include staying hydrated, practicing good hygiene, and avoiding irritants.
