A member asked:

Having a cyst makes you more likely to have a uti?

Dr. James Lin answered

Where is cyst?: Where is a cyst you referred to? Any cyst in urinary tract is not related with UTI, except theoretically, an obstructing urethral cyst may occur and be related with UTI if urinary retention + superimposed UTI. Otherwise, no.

Dr Raff and another doctor agreed
