About UTIs

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most common infections—especially in women—and can quickly become uncomfortable if not treated. A UTI occurs when bacteria enter the urinary system, affecting the bladder, urethra, or (in more serious cases) the kidneys.

Common UTI Symptoms

A burning sensation when urinating

Frequent urge to urinate (even with little output)

Cloudy, dark, or strong-smelling urine

Pelvic pressure or lower abdominal discomfort

Frequently Asked Questions About UTIs

What causes a UTI?

UTIs are typically caused by bacteria (most commonly E. coli) entering the urinary tract. This can happen due to factors like sexual activity, dehydration, improper wiping, or holding urine too long.

Some mild UTIs may improve, but most require antibiotics to fully clear the infection. Delaying treatment can lead to worsening symptoms or complications.

Our providers assess your symptoms through a secure online visit. If appropriate, we prescribe antibiotics and recommend supportive care—no in-person visit required in most cases.

Many patients begin to feel relief within 24–48 hours after starting antibiotics, though it’s important to complete the full course of medication.

You should seek urgent or in-person care if you experience:

  • Fever or chills
  • Back or side (flank) pain
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Symptoms that persist despite treatment

These could be signs of a more serious infection.
