Visit Us Promptly to Prevent
UTIs From Spreading
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) and kidney infections occur when bacteria enter and multiply within the urinary system, which includes the bladder, urethra, ureters, and kidneys. While UTIs typically affect the lower urinary tract, untreated infections can travel upward and impact the kidneys, leading to more serious complications. Common symptoms may include painful urination, cloudy or foul-smelling urine, lower back or abdominal pain, and fever. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are essential to prevent the infection from spreading.
Signs Indicating You Need to Visit Urgent Care:
- Burning sensation or pain while urinating
- Urge to urinate frequently, even if little comes out
- Cloudy, dark, or strong-smelling urine
- Blood visible in the urine
- Pain or pressure in the lower abdomen or back
- Fever, chills, or nausea along with urinary symptoms
- Pain in the side or lower back that gets worse
- History of frequent UTIs with recurring symptoms
Urinary Tract & Kidney Infections We Treat:
- Bladder Infections (Cystitis): Bladder infections are the most common type of urinary tract infection, often caused by bacteria entering through the urethra. If left untreated, the infection can spread to the kidneys. We provide antibiotic treatment to stop the infection early.
- Urethral Infections (Urethritis): Urethritis affects the urethra and can be caused by bacteria or sexually transmitted infections. It often presents with pain during urination and discharge. Prompt care is important to prevent complications and transmission.
- Kidney Infections (Pyelonephritis): Kidney infections are more serious and can develop when a lower UTI spreads upward, leading to high fever, chills, flank pain, and nausea. These infections require more intensive care to prevent kidney damage.
- Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections: Recurring UTIs may indicate an underlying issue or incomplete past treatment. We evaluate contributing factors like anatomy, hygiene habits, or chronic conditions and create personalized treatment plans to prevent future infections.
- Urinary Tract Infections During Pregnancy: UTIs during pregnancy require special care to avoid risks to both the mother and baby. We use safe testing methods and pregnancy-safe medications to offer prompt treatment and help ensure a healthier pregnancy outcome.
