Understanding Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs)
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common infections that can affect any part of the urinary system, including the bladder, kidneys, ureters, and urethra. Symptoms include a burning sensation during urination, frequent urge to urinate, cloudy urine, and pelvic pain. UTIs are more common in women than men and can be caused by bacteria entering the urinary tract. Treatment typically involves antibiotics, and preventive measures include good hygiene, staying hydrated, and emptying the bladder regularly.
