It is a bacterial infection that occurs in the urinary tract including the bladder and urethra. It affects both men and women; being more common in women.

Urinary tract infections can be caused by factors such as poor hygiene, sexual activity or new sexual partners, age (children and older adults are more at risk), structural problems in the urinary tract, kidney stones trapped in the bladder, diabetes and other diseases that impair the immune system.
