Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)
A urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection in any part of your urinary system — your kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra. Most infections involve the lower urinary tract — the bladder and the urethra. Women are at greater risk of developing a UTI than men. UTIs may not cause noticeable signs and symptoms, but when they do they may include a burning sensation when urinating and a persistent urge to urinate.
