Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs)

A urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection involving part of the urinary system, most commonly the bladder. UTIs are common and generally respond well to treatment when diagnosed promptly.

Common symptoms may include:

Burning or discomfort with urination
Frequent urination
Urgent need to urinate
Passing small amounts of urine
Lower abdominal or pelvic discomfort
Cloudy or unusually strong-smelling urine
Blood in the urine

Symptoms such as fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, or pain in the back or side may indicate that an infection has spread to the kidneys and should be evaluated promptly.

Urine testing may be performed when appropriate to help confirm the diagnosis and guide treatment. Antibiotics may be prescribed when a bacterial urinary tract infection is diagnosed.
