A member asked:

Should i be concerned if smelly urine goes away in a day? if i had a uti, would the urine smell all the time until it gets treated? would cabbage cause the smell?

Urine odor: Strong urine odor is common and food intake is the main reason. The cabbage may be responsible. Most likely it has nothing to do with your UTI.
