Why Do UTIs Recur?
While an occasional urinary tract infection (UTI) is easily managed, recurrent UTIs (2 or more infections in 6 months, or 3 in a year) warrant thorough urological investigation. Underlying factors may include incomplete bladder emptying, urinary calculi, diabetes, or pelvic floor dysfunction.
Red-Flag Symptoms You Shouldn't Ignore
- Persistent burning or sharp stinging during urination.
- Cloudy, foul-smelling, or dark-colored urine.
- High fever with chills and back pain (sign of acute pyelonephritis/kidney infection).
- Pelvic discomfort and constant urgency.
