A urinary traction infection (UTI) is a very common type of infection in the urinary system. A UTI can involve any part of your urinary system, including the urethra(urethritis), ureters(), bladder (cystitis), and kidneys(pyelonephritis). Symptoms typically include having pain when urinating (dysuria) and feeling pain in your side or lower back (flank pain) . Anyone can get a urinary tract infection, but they are more common in women. This is because the urethra (the tube that carries urine out of the body) in females is shorter and closer to the anus, where E. coli bacteria are common. Older adults also are at higher risk for developing cystitis. This increased risk may be due to incomplete emptying of the bladder. There are several medical conditions that can be related to this, including enlarged prostate or a bladder prolapse
