- More than 10 million visits to doctors' offices are made each year
- because of the symptoms and problems that come with a urinary tract infection
- (UTI). When the urge to urinate seems more urgent, or difficult to control,
- when urination is accompanied by a burning sensation or discomfort, the
- problem may be an infection somewhere along the urinary tract from the
- kidneys, ureter, bladder, to the urethra which carries the urine out of the
- body. In some cases the appearance of the urine, or a new and unpleasant odor
- is the first clue that something has gone wrong and that a visit to the
- physician is in order. The Bladder Health Council of the American Foundation
- for Urologic Disease has produced a new, informative and well illustrated
- brochure that contains many of the answers needed by individuals affected by a
- UTI. It is appropriately called "Answers to Your Questions About Urinary
- Tract Infections". You may obtain your copy by simply requesting it. Write
- to: Urinary Tract Infection, Publication Fulfillment, American Foundation for
- Urologic Disease, 300 West Pratt Street, Suite 401, Baltimore, MD 21201. No
- envelope is required with your request for this offering.
