Urinary tract infections are among the most common infections people have. They are more common among women due to anatomy, but men can also be plagued with them. These infections are also more common in the elderly and those with weak immune systems. Most urinary tract infections are acute, meaning they occur once and never return.When bacteria normally present in the large intestines, like E. Coli, gain entrance to the urinary tract through the urethra, infections can occur. The bacteria can travel up the urethra, into the bladder, and if left untreated, into the kidneys. The symptoms urinary tract infections cause range from mild to severe. Luckily, most urinary tract infections are easy to treat.Although urinary tract infections can resolve themselves on their own, there are complications that can occur if left untreated. These consequences include permanent damage to the bladder and kidneys and chronic infections of both the urinary tract and kidneys. A urinary tract infection should be treated as soon as symptoms appear to avoid complications in the future.
