Urinary tract infection (UTI) in Fatih: what to know locally
Fatih is a busy visitor area, so long days on foot, crowds and street food are the usual causes of illness. Close by are Bosphorus, Golden Horn, Galata, which share the same medical services. Busy sightseeing days make it easy to skip drinks and delay the toilet, both of which raise the risk. Carry water.
About urinary tract infection (uti)
UTI is the name for an infection somewhere in the urinary system, normally the bladder or the urethra, and bacteria are almost always the cause. Cystitis, an infection of the bladder, is the most frequent form and is more frequent in women.
Symptoms of urinary tract infection (uti)
- Sometimes blood in the urine
- Frequent, urgent need to pass urine, often only a little
- Cloudy or strong-smelling urine
