Symptoms of a urinary tract infection
If you are experiencing burning during urination or an increased feeling of urinary urgency, these could be symptoms of a urinary tract infection or another common infection. These types of infections are caused by bacteria entering the urethra and can lead to more serious complications, like a kidney infection, if left untreated.
It is important to seek medical attention and start treatment as soon as possible. We offer UTI testing at all of the urgent care centers, so visit us at the first sign of a UTI. We want to help you to feel better faster.
Causes of a urinary tract infection
UTIs are commonly caused by a bacteria called Escherichia coli (E.coli). This type of bacteria lives in our digestive tract and due to women’s anatomy, it can be easily transferred to the urethra.
Sexual intercourse can increase the chance of UTIs in women, but that is not always the cause. Menopause, pregnancy, and certain types of birth control may also increase the chance of UTIs. Other causes of UTI symptoms for men and women include:
- Blockages, like kidney stones or prostate problems for men
- Urinary tract abnormalities
- Suppressed immunity
- Catheter use
- Recent urinary surgery or procedure
While you can experience different causes and symptoms of UTIs, medical treatment is required to help prevent complications.
