Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) Treatment
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common and can affect the bladder, urethra, or kidneys.Â
Symptoms like painful urination, frequent urges, or lower abdominal discomfort can disrupt your daily life.
At EveryMed, our experienced GPs provide prompt, accurate UTI treatment, helping you relieve symptoms quickly, prevent complications, and reduce the risk of recurrence.
Understanding Urinary Tract Infections
UTIs occur when bacteria enter the urinary tract, often originating from the bowel.Â
Women are more commonly affected due to a shorter urethra, but men and children can also develop infections.
We treat:
- Cystitis – bladder infection
- Urethritis – infection of the urethra
- Kidney infections (pyelonephritis)
- Recurrent UTIs – frequent infections
Timely treatment prevents the infection from spreading to the kidneys or bloodstream.
Common Symptoms of UTIs
Book an appointment with our bladder infection GP if you experience:
- Painful or burning urination
- Frequent urge to urinate, even with little urine output
- Cloudy or strong-smelling urine
- Blood in urine
- Lower abdominal or pelvic pain
- Fever or chills (may indicate kidney involvement)
- Fatigue or malaise
Causes of Urinary Tract Infections
- Bacterial infections, most commonly E. coli
- Poor hygiene practices
- Holding urine for long periods
- Dehydration
- Sexual activity
- Urinary catheter use
- Enlarged prostate (men)
- Pregnancy
- Structural urinary tract abnormalities
Identifying the cause is crucial for preventing recurrence.
How We Diagnose UTIs
During your consultation, our GP will:
- Review your medical and urinary history
- Conduct a physical examination
- Request urine tests (urinalysis and culture)
- Assess for kidney involvement if symptoms are severe
- Review medications and past UTI history
Accurate diagnosis ensures effective treatment and reduces recurrence risk.
Treatment Options
Mild to Moderate UTIs
- Oral antibiotics to clear the infection
- Pain relief medication for burning sensation
- Increased hydration advice
- Cranberry or dietary support guidance (optional)
Severe or Recurrent UTIs
- Extended or targeted antibiotic courses
- Urine culture to identify resistant bacteria
- Preventive strategies for recurrent infections
- Referral to a urologist for structural or chronic issues
Self-Care and Recovery
- Drink plenty of water to flush bacteria
- Avoid irritants like caffeine, alcohol, and spicy foods
- Maintain good hygiene
- Empty bladder regularly
When to See a Doctor
Book a consultation if you experience:
- Painful or frequent urination
- Blood in urine
- Fever, nausea, or back pain (may indicate kidney infection)
- Recurring urinary infections
- Symptoms not improving within 48 hours
Seek urgent care if:
- Severe lower back or flank pain
- High fever or chills
- Confusion or dizziness (especially in older adults)
- Vomiting or inability to keep fluids down
These may indicate a serious kidney infection requiring immediate attention.

EXCELLENT Based on 86 reviews Posted on oyisile njisaneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I visited Every Smile Dentistry for the first time today and I am pleased with the service I received. The receptions was very warm and welcoming. I was attended to by Dr A Somtunzi who was also so friendly and welcoming. I had my teeth cleaned and a filling done. She gave a detailed explanation of what needed to be done. She was so gentle and I felt no discomfort at all. I’m happy with the work she did. Outside the excellent service, I think the thoughtful gesture of having ladies essentials in the rest room for everyone to use won my heartPosted on lenyora magocobaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
