What are some signs and symptoms of a UTI?

Answer 1

Symptoms of UTI vary somewhat depending on sex, age, and the area of the urinary tract that is infected; sometimes unique symptoms develop depending on how long the infection has been going on. Some are: Pain or a burning feeling during urination, a feeling of urgency, or feeling the need to urinate frequently and passing only a tiny amount of urine even when the urge to urinate is strong, an altered appearance of the urine, either bloody (red) or cloudy (containing pus) and pain or pressure in the rectum (men) or in the area of the pubic bone (women).

Answer 2

The symptoms of a bladder infection include:

• Cloudy or bloody urine, which may have a foul or strong odor
• Low fever (not everyone will have a fever)
• Pain or burning with urination
• Pressure or cramping in the lower abdomen (usually middle) or back
• Strong need to urinate often, even right after the bladder has been emptied
