How would i know if i had a urinary tract infection?


How would i know if i had a urinary tract infection?

Pain in the area around your bladder (usually more localized than period cramps), burning sensation during urination and the presence of blood or pus in your urine. Also, a minor fever, hot/cold flashes and a change in the colour of your urine can signal an infection. Drink a lot of cranberry juice and water. If the infection lasts longer than a few days to a week, you notice a lot of blood in your urine or you find that you're having difficultly peeing, go see a doctor. If the urine takes on a brownish colour, it's a sign of muscle or liver damage, and needs to be treated right away.

If it burns when you urinate
Dark urine
blood in urine
feeling like you have to go really bad then you go but nothing really comes out

Feeling hot/feverish.
Trouble passing water. Needing to go a lot more. Stinging when you do pass water.

your urine may also have an ammonia smell to it or just have a very foul odor
