A urinary tract infection (UTI), commonly known as a bladder infection or cystitis, occurs when bacteria enter the bladder from the urethra. Though more common in women, men can also experience UTIs.
Treatment Options:
Simple Infections: Treated with antibiotics like Trimethoprim or Cephalexin.
Complex UTIs and Kidney Infections: May require fluoroquinolones like Ciprofloxacin (Cipro) or Levofloxacin (Levaquin).
Symptom Relief: Medications to numb the urethra and bladder for discomfort or burning.
Important: If you have severe symptoms such as fever, intense pain, or vomiting, or if you have existing kidney or bladder issues, seek specialist care at urgent care facilities or hospitals.
