UTI? What U need to know!

What is UTI

A UTI is an infection of the bladder or urinary tract, usually caused by bacteria. It’s a very common condition, especially in women.:

Most uncomplicated UTIs are not serious but can be uncomfortable. Treatment can  help you feel better quickly and prevent complications.

 Symptoms of UTI

  • A burning or stinging sensation when passing urine
  • Needing to urinate more often or urgently
  • Cloudy or strong-smelling urine
  • Lower abdominal pain
  • Feeling tired, unwell, or feverish

  • Provide NHS-approved treatment if you qualify.
  • Recommend self-care measures to ease pain and speed recovery
  • Direct you to further care if your condition needs a GP or hospital review
