Antibiotics, of course, kill bacteria. Taking them would actually kill any infection in the urinary tract, not cause it, however, since urine flushes out toxins and waste from your body, you still could get inflammation in your urinary tract, therefore causing the same irritation as an UTI. You may also experience diarrhea as a result.

Yes, lower urinary infections in the bladder can travel upwards to become a much more serious kidney infection, known as pyelonephritis.

While you can kill inflammation by using Diuretic anti-inflammatory pill .You will be OK in a short time.

I have been suffering from infected tooth for 2 months ,been on antibiotic on and off (full course) now for the last 10 days the tooth infection came back and for the past 3 days i started feeling UTI. I think UTI is caused by the tooth infection specially that i have low white blood cells since long time.

I think Yes it causes somehow the UTI specially if your immune system is not strong.

What if you don't get treatment for a urinary tract infection?

A urinary tract infection (UTI) occurs anywhere in the urinary tract between the urethra (the outlet "pipe") and either or both of the kidneys. If it's confined to the urethra it's called urethritis. If it's in the bladder it's cystitis. If it travels up the ureter to the kidney it can develop into pyelonephritis, which is inflammation of the upper urinary tract. Acute pyelonephritis usually results from bladder infection (cystitis). It is usually treated with antibiotics and painkillers. Untreated and repeated UTIs may result in chronic pyelonephritis, which can eventually cause permanent kidney damage. A bad urinary tract infection left for over a year would undoubtedly cause some damage, if not to the kidneys then to the bladder. At the very least you would need to keep the urinary tract flushed out with copious amounts of non-caffeinated liquid.


Is vaginal tissue ordinary skin?

No, it is not skin, but a membrane that is found lining all parts of the body that are internal but with an outside exit. These include your entire digestive tract, upper respiratory tract, and urinary/reproductive tracts. This membrane produces mucous and you make plenty of it when you have a upper respiratory infection like a cold.
