When to See a Doctor for Your UTI

Seek immediate medical attention if you experience fever over 101°F (38.3°C), severe abdominal pain, or blood in your urine. These could indicate a more serious infection.

Consult your doctor if symptoms like frequent urination, burning sensation during urination, or pelvic pain persist for more than two days despite home treatment. Don’t wait for the pain to become unbearable.

If you’re pregnant or have a weakened immune system, contact your doctor at the first sign of a UTI. These conditions increase the risk of complications.

Recurring UTIs (three or more in a year) require a doctor’s visit to identify underlying causes and prevent future infections. This helps to determine a long-term treatment plan.

If you have any concerns about your symptoms or treatment, schedule an appointment with your physician. Early detection and proper treatment are key to managing UTIs.
