A member asked:
I currently have a urine infection and as a child i had a reflux and i was wondering if it can recur as an adult?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: Depends on the cause of the reflux and what was done about it. Uti is very common in women because of the short urethra (tube from bladder out to labia). If, however, this leads to upper urinary tract infection you should definitely be seen by a urologist.
