Mt. Vernon UTI Treatment at AFC Urgent Care

A urinary tract infection, commonly known as a UTI, is most often a bacterial infection in any part of the urinary system including: kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra. Most UTIs involve the bladder and are among the most common infections in people. Women are usually at greater risk of developing a urinary tract infection, but they can occur in men and children as well. If you think you or your child may have a UTI, it is important to seek medical attention. The sooner you receive treatment for a UTI, the less chance it will spread to your kidneys, which can have more serious consequences.
