Why don't younger patients with urinary tract infections suffer from the symptoms of dementia when they have a UTI, but the elderly experience this symptom. Please note, I use "dementia" loosely. I do realize the difference between actually having the psychological disease and merely a symptom from an UTI. I am only using the term to best describe the situation I'm referring. in other words, why do the elderly get "crazy in the head" when they have a UTI, but younger patients do not?

Is it supposed to be a different color, sticky not sticky, pee, etc. I think I'm bugging out because I just had sex without using a condom a day ago, which of course is the first time I ever had sex, so I'm freaking out a bit. I think I'm just seeing everything as a symptom but anyone can help me out? also, is UTI considered a STD? about to get tested for everything.

Most men if not all display symptoms with gonorhea and chlaymydia. I don't know about the other STDs. Discharge is a common symptom.

The color should be like a milky white.

A UTI – urinary tract infection is NOT an STD. a UTI is usually caused by baceria from your rectum that travels into the urethra. That needs to be treated if you have one. Untreated UTIs can lead to serious issues!

From now on practive safe sexd and good luck with your testing!

Well a lesson leaned. I don't know what a UTI is but if you just had sex a day ago osme of the symptoms owon't come out for a while. you are smart to get checked though. Grab a hand full of free condos while you are there.

Any change in what happens when you urinate or pass anything else should be a concenr. but like i said, the symptoms wont show up in 1 day. Sorry this is so scary but hopefully all of the tests will be negative.

I am a female but it is my understanding that with some STDs men experience burning whne they pee. but not with all of them. a lot of guys are asymptomatic.

All of these nasty symptoms can be the sign of a bladder infection: Constant irritation, uncomfortable disposition, and of course, painful urination. No people would ever want to experience these nasty things.

At least half of all women in the world will get an urinary tract infection (UTI), or a bladder infection, at least once in their lifetime. 50% of women will experience an UTI or bladder infection over the course of their lifetime. Although men can get bladder infections as well, women get them much more often.

Here are the top 7 most simple to follow and effective bladder infection cures:

Bladder infections are caused by bad bacteria in your body, and asparagus has been scientifically proven to kill bacteria. Buy a can of asparagus and drink the juice as well. you can also eat fresh asparagus.

Lemon juice has lots of Vitamin-C, and this can build your immune system as well as increase your body’s defenses against getting the infection. this is definitely a reason why drinking lemon juice is a very good aid in treating bladder infections. Always remember to drink lots of water as well.

Apple cider vinegar can be a huge help in the treatment of bladder infections. this is another beneficial alternative to lemon juice, as it effects the acidity levels of your urine, along with killing the bad bacteria.

Along with making the urine more acidic, cranberries contain a lot of vitamin-C. Pure cranberry juice is much better than the concentrated form. Cranberry capsules are another option for you to consider. Cranberry capsules can be found over-the-counter at your local drug store.

The always amazing Aspirin not only reduces bladder inflammation, but inflammation of the surrounding tissues and membranes also. Aspirin is very inexpensive and has been around forever. your doctor should always be consulted first, before taking any medications you buy over-the-counter.

I just had sex for the 1st time 9 days ago and now I think I have one

you can have symptoms right after having sex.. .and its probably a urinary tract infection… .after having sex you need to go pee.. .right away.. .
start drinking cranberry juice.. dring a whole liter of it… by sipping it all day long.. this will help… if you still have problems tomorrow.. drink it all day tomorrow as well.. you will have to pee a lot.. but its worth it to fix the pain

Having sex and getting a UTI doesn't come hand in hand. Yes, you can get a UTI because of sex, but not always. Symptoms of a UTI can appear at any point. see your doctor if you think you have one. you will need antibiotics.

Are there any STDs or UTIs that show symptoms after just 1-2 days after intercourse? or do they take longer than that?

sometimes gonorrhea will show up with in 5 days with some urinary pain and discharge or an odor. sometimes even blood may be present after 10 days.

i don't know i'm trying to find out myself.i broke up with my boyfriend for 2 yrs about 2 months ago. being dumb i hooked back up with him a week ago. the next day i was hurting down there and i thought it might just be raw from becoming dry during sex. a few days later i developed a sore next to my urethra(the pp hole). my abdominal area is now hurting. i went to the er and told the dr. she looked down there and said she didn't see anything. but she did say i had a UTI and gave me a rx for that. i called the local health department. and the next appointment they had was about a month away. i know from taking micro that if it is syphilis then i need to get it treated/cured A.S.A.P so if anyone can help us PLEASE!

I went to the dr today because I had thrush – I have diabetes and get it a lot, although I haven't had it for about a year – it just suddenly came on a couple of days ago really bad. the dr tested my urine while I was there and said I have a urine infection (the stick was the darkest colour showing a strongly positive result), but I've never had one before and I don't have any symptoms except feeling a bit ill – nothing specific just not quite myself which I put down to the thrush getting me down a bit.

This all started when I had Cholera and Hep B vaccinations on Tuesday but I don't know if that's a coincidence?

The problem is that if I take the antibiotics for the uti it'll make the thrush worse so I don't want to take them if I don't have a urine infection. the dr said that sometimes thrush can cause a positive result for a uti but she'd give me antibiotics anyway and when I said wouldn't that make my thrush worse she was like 'yes a lot worse' but then prescribed me them anyway!! I've never had a urine infection before and I'm really not convinced that I have one now – should I take the antibiotics anyway?? What'll happen if I do have a uti and I don't take them? I feel like either way I could be making myself worse!

Sorry about the long explanation – I really need help – I don't know what to do!! I did try to ask the dr but she wasn't very friendly and just kind of brushed me off. Thank you so much for your help!! xxx

There are a couple of things you can do to ease the thrush, both sound a bit surprising. One is that you can bathe it with roouibosh tea (you can get it from health food shops if the supermarket hasn't got any) make it like ordinary tea and bathe as much of the area as you can get to with cotton wool dipped in the cool tea.(or just rinse your mouth with it if the thrush is there) this really does help. I have also read that putting live plain yogurt on it helps too, but haven't tried it. I would advise you to take the antibiotics because a urinary infection can make you feel very ill if left untreated. As soon as the course is finished eat plenty of plain yogurt which will help to replace the beneficial gut bacteria that the antibiotics will kill off.

You will probably end up like me, I got a freak kidney infection after a slight 2 day uti.
Since you have thrush you would have been given a prescription cream to end it.
Take them together, as having a kidney infection in my opinion is MUCH worse than having a thrush infection.
