का कारण बनता है

UTIs are caused by bacteria that most often come from the digestive tract or rectal area. The bacteria cling to the opening of the urethra and begin to multiply. If the infection is not treated right away, bacteria may move up the urinary system to the kidneys.

Most infections are caused by a type of bacteria called E. coli. E. coli normally lives in the colon. The bacteria may move from the rectal area to the urethra.

UTIs can also be sexually transmitted. This type of infection usually does not spread past the urethra. Both partners need to be treated.

जोखिम कारक

Factors that may increase your risk of developing a UTI include:

• Sex: female—the rectum and urethra are fairly close to each other in women, making infection more likely
• Being sexually active
• Using a diaphragm for birth control
• रजोनिवृत्ति
• मधुमेह
• गुर्दे की पथरी
• बढ़ा हुआ अग्रागम
• कमजोर प्रतिरक्षा प्रणाली
• Abnormalities of the urinary system, such as vesicoureteral reflux or polycystic kidneys
• Paraplegia or quadriplegia
• Sickle-cell anemia
• History of kidney transplant
• Bladder catheter in place, or recent device inserted into the urinary system
• गर्भावस्था

लक्षण

If you have any of these symptoms, do not assume they are due to a UTI. These लक्षण उत्पन्न हो सकते हैं अन्य शर्तों द्वारा. यदि आपके पास इनमें से कुछ है तो अपने डॉक्टर को बताएं:

• बार-बार और तत्काल पेशाब करने की आवश्यकता होना
• Passing small amounts of urine
• Pain in the abdomen or pelvic area
• पेशाब के दौरान जलन होना
• बादलयुक्त, दुर्गंधयुक्त मूत्र
• रात में पेशाब करने के लिए उठने की आवश्यकता बढ़ जाती है
• पेशाब का रिसना
• बुखार और ठंड लगना
• Nausea and poor appetite

An infection in the kidney can be more serious. Call your doctor right away if you have symptoms of a kidney infection, such as:

• Bloody urine
• Low back pain or pain along the side of the ribs
• तेज़ बुखार और ठंड लगना

निदान

Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will also be done. A sample of your urine will be tested for blood, pus, and bacteria.

In general, children and men are less likely to get UTIs. Their infections are more likely to be caused by structural problems of the kidneys, bladder, or tubes. As a result, children and men may need more testing to determine the cause of a UTI.

UTIs are treated with antibiotic drugs. Standard medical care for a UTI includes taking antibiotics for three days. You will probably start to feel better after a day or two. It is important that you continue to take the entire course of medication, even if you feel better.

You may have your urine checked after you finish taking the antibiotics. This is to make sure that the infection is truly gone. If you have recurrent infections, you may be referred to a specialist.

The infection may cause pain and spasms in the bladder. Your doctor may recommend a medication called Pyridium. It may turn your urine, and sometimes your sweat, an orange color.

Severe UTIs may need a strong initial dose of antibiotics. You may be given antibiotics through an IV or an injection.
