What is uti?

Answer by  sailoryue (853)

UTI stands for urinary tract infection. Most common treatments are antibiotics and cranberries. I often enjoy straight cranberry juice. It's tart, yes, but very healthy for UT health.

The acronym UTI is short for urinary tract infection. A UTI is a bacterial infection of the urinary tract that results in a burning sensation when urinating. Since UTI's are most commonly caused by E. coli, they can easily be treated with antibiotics.

A urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection of the bladder or kidneys. The symptoms include a frequent need to urinate with little output, pain and burning during urination, and sometimes fever is present. Antibiotics are prescribed to cure the infection. Resting, taking acetaminophen for pain and fever, and drinking plenty of water to flush the urinary tract are advisable.

A UTI is a urinary tract infection and is usually treated with a course of antibiotics. It is important to finish the whole course of antibiotics given to you, even if your symptoms seem to clear up before they are finished. UTIs can also be helped (along with the antibiotics) by drinking cranberry juice.
