PATHOLOGIES
Urological infections, acute and chronic
Bacterial urinary tract infections can affect different areas such as the urethra, prostate, bladder or kidneys. Symptoms can vary from their absence to the presence of frequency, urinary urgency, dysuria, lower abdominal and lumbar pain. In cases of kidney infection, systemic symptoms may manifest, even causing sepsis. The diagnosis is based on urine analysis and culture. Treatment involves the use of antibiotics and the removal of catheters in the urinary tract, as well as the elimination of obstructions.
