What is a good way to determine if my urethra is infected?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually symptoms.: Infections of the urinary tract usually present with symptoms such as burning & pain with urination, blood, urgency, frequency, & occasionally, fever. If you have these symptoms, a urinalysis & culture should be performed to confirm the presence of infection. Some infections (chlamydia) may be silent, & need specific testing. If you have concerns, see your physician for evaluation.
