Understanding urinary tract infection (uti)
A urinary tract infection, or UTI, happens when bacteria get into the bladder or urethra. Bladder infection (cystitis) is the commonest type and affects women more often than men.
Symptoms of urinary tract infection (uti)
- Cloudy or strong-smelling urine
- Frequent, urgent need to pass urine, commonly only a little
- Burning or stinging when urinating
- Lower belly or pelvic discomfort
- Sometimes blood in the urine
Why urinary tract infection (uti) happens
The germs normally come from the bowel and reach the urethra. Dehydration, putting off trips to the toilet, hours in damp swimwear, heat, travel fatigue and new partners all add to the risk when you are away.
Prevention tips
Drink plenty of water, pass urine regularly and after sex, change out of wet swimwear rapidly and avoid irritating products around the genitals.
