Urinary tract infection is the most common urinary tract disease.

The urinary tract consists of the urethra, bladder, ureters and kidneys. Urine infection is possible in men, women and children.

Urinary tract infections are more common in women because the short urethra facilitates the entry of bacteria.

Urinary tract infections also occur in elderly men if their prostate gland is enlarged and the flow of urine is reduced with it.

The urine of a healthy person is sterile (it does not contain microbes). Emptying the bladder completely at regular intervals is one of the best ways to keep the urinary tract sterile.

Usually, the infection starts in the urethra and can spread from there to the upper urinary tract and all the way to the kidneys. The symptoms vary considerably: burning when emptying the bladder or a strong need to urinate. Urine may also be cloudy or have a strong smell.

In the event of a positive test result, please contact healthcare professionals.
