Dr. Hunter Handsfield answered

Specializes in Infectious Disease

UTI: Citrobacter koseri is the name of a bacteria found in your urine. If in sufficient numbers and especially if you have symptoms of a UTI (usually painful, frequent, and urgent urination), or if urinalysis shows increased white blood cells, you have a UTI and probably need an antibiotic prescription. Discuss with your doctor.
