Frequently Asked Questions
A UTI is an infection in any part of the urinary system, including the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. Most infections involve the lower urinary tract — the bladder and the urethra.
Common symptoms include a strong urge to urinate, a burning sensation during urination, cloudy or strong-smelling urine, and, in the case of a kidney infection, pain in the back or side, fever, and chills.
While anyone can get a UTI, they are more common in women due to their anatomy. Other risk factors include urinary tract abnormalities, blockages like kidney stones, suppressed immune systems, catheter use, and menopause.
UTIs are diagnosed based on symptoms and confirmed with urine tests. Treatment usually involves antibiotics to kill the bacteria causing the infection. Drinking plenty of fluids and taking pain relief medication can also help alleviate symptoms.
Yes, UTIs can often be prevented by practising good toileting hygiene, staying hydrated, urinating when needed (especially after sexual activity), and avoiding irritants like caffeine and acidic foods. For those with recurrent UTIs, doctors may recommend preventive antibiotics or other strategies.
