UTI (cystitis)

A Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) is an infection that affects any part of the urinary system, which includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. Most UTIs involve the lower urinary tract — the bladder and the urethra. UTIs are typically caused by bacteria, most commonly Escherichia coli (E. coli), which are normally found in the digestive system. Symptoms include a frequent urge to urinate, burning sensation during urination, cloudy or strong-smelling urine, and pelvic discomfort. Preventive measures include good personal hygiene, staying hydrated, and urinating regularly and after intercourse, while antibiotics are often used to eradicate the infection.
