About Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs):
A UTI is an infection in the bladder that causes discomfort when passing urine. Symptoms may include a burning or stinging feeling when you wee, needing to go more often, feeling a strong urge to pass urine, or pain in the lower tummy. Most UTIs are easily treated with a short course of antibiotics.
