The urinary tract (UTI) is the path that urine (Pee) travels from the bladder, through the urethra to the exit of the body at the Vagina or Penis. The lining of the urethra becomes infected, swollen & painful & the urine smells strong & is often discolored.

An increase in temperature often follows any infection & a strong burning sensation usually happens with passing urine.

UTI's

can also be symptoms of Sexually Transmitted diseases (STD's)

so they should not be taken lightly.

There are a few home remedies, and Over the counter remedies that ease the pain but antibiotics will clear it up pretty fast, it is a good idea to see a Dr to make sure it is nothing more and get the antibiotics.

When an infection reaches your bladder or kidneys, this is termed urinary track infection. These infections often originate from your stool, which carries bacteria that lives in your large intestine, and enters the urinary track through your urethra (the whole where the pee comes out). Bladder infections are the most common.

The two main forms of UTI's are Prostitis and Cystitis

Cystitis - Occurs in females - bacteria enters urethra and reaches the bladder - causing burning sensation

Prostitis - occurs in males - bacteria reaches the prostate gland causing swelling, infection may spread downwards towards the testes causing pain and swelling.

OR

An infection may occur in the kidney due to blocked urine flow

A chronic urinary tract infection is a bladder/kidney infection that keeps recurring. Its treating course can be more than three months. Antibiotics are commonly used for curing urinary track infection. However, antibiotics can develop drug resistance if taken for a long period. Under this condition, it's better to take a treatment with no side effects, like herbal medicine called diuretic and anti-inflammatory pill.

In conjunction with the bladder, kidneys, and specific tubes, the urinary tract processes urine and carries it out of the body. At times, a person's urinary tract can become infected by bacteria growing in these places. Sexual intercourse can lead to a transfer of bacteria that causes a urinary tract infection, especially in women. In most cases, a urinary tract infection is not serious. However, if it goes untreated, the infection can spread to other organs and cause serious problems in a person's bladder or kidneys.

Symptoms

Urinary tract infection symptoms may include pain when you urinate, frequent urination in which you pass only a small amount of urine, and heaviness or pain in your abdomen. Other symptoms include a discoloration of urine, which is typically reddish or pinkish, foul-smelling urine, or cloudy urine. Some individuals experience pain in their lower back on one side of the body, fever, chills, nausea or vomiting. In some cases, a person may have bacteria in their urinary tract but not experience any symptoms. This is common in pregnant women. A doctor usually orders a screening for a urinary tract infection in pregnant women periodically.

Diagnosing UTI

If you are experiencing symptoms related to a urinary tract infection, your doctor will most likely conduct a physical exam and a urinalysis. A urinalysis checks the color, smell, pH balance, odor, and clarity of the urine. Your doctor may also decide to order a urine culture, which test for specific germs and bacteria in urine that cause a urinary tract infection. The urine sample collected is kept in an environment that causes the growth of bacteria. If bacteria fail to grow at a rapid pace, then the test is negative. If a large amount of bacteria grow, then the test is positive. A microscope is used to determine the type of bacteria causing the infection.

Treating UTI

Most urinary tract infections are treated successfully with antibiotics. Treatment with antibiotics is used to eliminate the symptoms and infection, prevent a reoccurrence, and prevent infection from spreading to the bladder and kidneys.
