What are the symptoms of urinary tract infection (UTI)?
Not everyone with UTI has symptoms, but most people get at least some. These may include a frequent urge to urinate and a painful, burning feeling in the area of the bladder or urethra during urination. It is not unusual to feel bad and to feel pain even when not urinating. Often women feel an uncomfortable pressure above the pubic bone and some men experience fullness in the rectum. It is common for a person with UTI to complain that despite the urge to urinate, only a small amount of urine is passed.
