Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) Diagnosis and Treatment



Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are caused by bacteria that have spread from the rectum or vagina to the urethra and bladder. Severe cases, left untreated, may cause kidney infection.  It is important to seek medical attention if you think you may have a Urinary Tract Infection (UTI).
