Urinary Tract Infection

The kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra, among other components of the urinary system, are all affected by a urinary tract infection (UTI). The bladder and urethra are the most often infected parts of the urinary system.

Women are more likely than males to acquire a urinary tract infection. A bladder infection may be both painful and inconvenient. If a UTI spreads to your kidneys, though, it might have catastrophic effects.

Urinary tract infections are routinely treated with antibiotics. However, there are actions you may do to minimize your chances of having a UTI in the first place.
