Urinary Tract Infections – Diagnosis and Treatment. When Should You See a Urologist?

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common bacterial infections diagnosed in both women and men – although they are significantly more common in women due to anatomical differences. The symptoms can be very bothersome and have a major impact on daily comfort. At Mediss Medical Clinic, you’ll find a good urologist in Gdańsk who will help you accurately diagnose and treat the condition.

What Are Urinary Tract Infections?

Urinary tract infections are inflammatory conditions caused by bacteria – most often by Escherichia coli (E. coli). These microorganisms enter the bladder through the urethra and begin to multiply, leading to uncomfortable symptoms.

Depending on the location of the infection, we distinguish:

  • Lower urinary tract infections – such as cystitis and urethritis.
  • Upper urinary tract infections – such as pyelonephritis (kidney infection), which is more serious and requires prompt medical attention.

Symptoms of UTIs – What to Look Out For?

Symptoms of lower urinary tract infections:

  • Frequent urge to urinate and a feeling of incomplete bladder emptying,
  • Burning and pain while urinating,
  • Changes in urine color and smell (cloudy, darker urine with an unpleasant odor),
  • Lower abdominal pain,
  • Sometimes blood in the urine (hematuria).

Symptoms of upper urinary tract infections:

  • Severe pain in the lower back (kidneys),
  • Fever, chills, general malaise,
  • Nausea and vomiting,
  • Fatigue and lack of appetite.

Do not ignore any of these symptoms – they may indicate a developing infection that requires professional treatment.

UTI Diagnosis at Mediss Medical – Gdańsk

If you suspect a urinary tract infection, don’t delay. At our clinic, we provide comprehensive diagnostics to quickly identify the cause of your symptoms. A good urologist in Gdańsk will perform:

  • Urine analysis – to detect the presence of white blood cells, blood, and bacteria,
  • Urine culture – to identify the exact bacteria and select targeted treatment,
  • Ultrasound of the urinary tract – to evaluate the bladder, kidneys, and any obstructions (e.g., stones),
  • Cystoscopy – if chronic bladder issues are suspected,
  • Uroflowmetry – a test measuring urine flow, useful in assessing urethral obstruction.

How Do We Treat Urinary Tract Infections?

Treatment depends on the type of infection and the patient’s overall health. At Mediss Medical, we offer individualized and effective treatment methods:

Antibiotic therapy – based on urine culture results.
Symptomatic treatment – pain relievers and antipyretics if discomfort is significant.
Hydration – drinking plenty of fluids helps flush out bacteria.
Lifestyle changes – in some cases, improved hygiene or dietary habits are recommended.

If the infections are recurrent, a urologist may recommend preventive treatment or additional tests.

When Should You Visit a Urologist?

Do you experience burning during urination, lower abdominal pain, or frequent trips to the toilet? These may be signs it’s time to consult a urologist. The most urgent reasons to see a urologist include:

  • Recurring infections,
  • Blood in the urine,
  • Fever and back pain,
  • UTIs in men (always require urological evaluation),
  • Coexisting conditions (e.g., diabetes, enlarged prostate).

At Mediss Medical, our experienced urologist in Gdańsk will approach your issue with care and propose the best treatment options.

How to Prevent UTIs?

Prevention plays a key role in reducing UTI recurrence. Remember to:
