A urinary tract infection is an infection in any part of your urinary system, which includes the bladder, urethra, ureters (urine tubes) and kidneys. If untreated, UTIs can lead to kidney infection which can be very serious. UTIs are caused by microbes, mainly bacteria, but also fungi and viruses[1].
