Urinary system infections
Please provide me with 8 different medical conditions & 5 facts about each one regarding the urinary system infections from your textbook or study guide.
Example: CYSTITIS
1. Cystitis is the medical term for bladder infection, a type of urinary tract infection commonly caused by bacteria
2. Often, the bacteria travels from the urethra very fast and causes inflammation of the urethra, called urethritis
3. Sometimes the bacteria is not flushed out and travels up to the bladder and causes infection
4. Symptoms of cystitis include frequent urges to urinate, a burning sensation when urinating, pain in the lower abdomen, dark or bloody and foul-smelling urine, and/or fever or chills
5. Treatment is done by antibiotic therapy, but the antibiotics used depends on the type of bacteria that caused the bladder infection
