UTI

UTI (Urinary tract infection) begins in the urethra with the entry of microorganisms, such as bacteria, which may travel up the urinary tract till the kidney. Bladder becomes the breeding ground, where these bacteria multiply. UTI occurs when the immune system fails to counter these bacteria. Depending on the part of the urinary system infected, the UTIs can be of following types:

Cystitis – Infection of the urinary bladder
