• A burning feeling when you urinate
• A frequent or intense urge to urinate, even though little comes out when you do
• Cloudy, dark, bloody, or strange-smelling urine
• Feeling tired or shaky
• Fever or chills (a sign that the infection may have reached your kidneys)
• Pain or pressure in your back or lower abdomen
If your physician thinks you need them, antibiotics are the 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 for urinary tract infections. Be sure to take all of your prescribed medicine, even after you start to feel better.
