Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common bacterial infections affecting any part of the urinary system, including the kidneys, bladder, ureters, and urethra. Escherichia coli is a predominant causative agent, but other bacteria, viruses, or fungi can also lead to UTIs. Symptoms of UTIs may include frequent and painful urination, a strong urge to urinate, cloudy or foul-smelling urine, and pelvic pain. UTIs are more prevalent in women due to the shorter urethra, making it easier for bacteria to reach the bladder. Factors like sexual activity, urinary tract abnormalities, and a weakened immune system can increase the risk of UTIs. Diagnosis involves urine analysis, and treatment typically includes antibiotics to eliminate the infecting bacteria. Preventive measures include staying hydrated, practicing good hygiene, avoiding irritants like harsh soaps, and emptying the bladder regularly. Ongoing research focuses on understanding bacterial resistance, optimizing treatment regimens, and developing alternative preventive strategies for UTIs.
