A member asked:

Is it normal for a 9 year old to have a bladder infection?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It happens: I find it more common in young girls than boys but it does happen.To meet my diagnostic criteria for calling it a uti, i must have a clean catch urine positive for bacterial growth on culture. Simply finding white cells in the urine is not always a reliable factor to make the diagnosis.
