What is the difference between gonorrhea and a UTI?

Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted infection caused by the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae, primarily affecting the genital tract, rectum, and throat, often accompanied by symptoms like painful urination and discharge. In contrast, a urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection in any part of the urinary system, typically caused by bacteria like Escherichia coli, leading to symptoms such as frequent urination, burning sensation, and abdominal pain.

Treatment for gonorrhea often involves antibiotics, whereas UTIs are usually treated with different antibiotics based on the specific bacteria involved.
