Urinary tract infections (UTIs), is an infection caused by pathogenic organisms such as, bacteria, fungi, or parasites, The most common bacterial to cause these infections are uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC), aka E. coli., affecting more than 150 million people worldwide every year .According to research published in March 2012 in the journal Emerging Infectious Diseases,E. coli is responsible for more than 85 percent of all urinary tract infections. These bacteriatypically initiate UTIs by invading the superficial epithelium that lines the bladder lumen, called urothelial cells.There are many risk factors for UTIs. Changes in the sexual activity, pregnancy, and menopausal status have a high influence risk for UTI occurrence since all of them affect the urogenital bacterial composition.
Most UTIs are uncomplicated and don’t cause any lasting harm to the urinary tract. But UTIs that aren’t treated can progress to the kidneys, where permanent damage can occur. Symptoms of such conditions often include pain in the lower back (flank pain on one or both sides), fever, chills, nausea, and/or vomiting. However, it’s usually a minor illness when an infection affects the bladder. Many effective OTC UTI treatment options, such as Nepbio’s (NBI) URICIL for UTI, can help treat your UTIs.

About UTI
UTI stands for urinary tract infection caused by Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria that normally lives in the intestines.It’s also found in the gut of some animals.Most types of E. coli are harmless. It even helps keep the digestive tract healthy. But some strains can cause diarrheaif contaminated food or drink fouled wate was consumed.
E. coli is associated with food poisoning. But pneumonia and urinary tract infections can be from different types of the bacteria. Strains, such as E. coli O157:H7, affect organs within the urinary system in the human body, such as the kidney, bladder, urethra, and ureters, causing severe stomach cramps, bloody diarrhea, vomiting, inflammation and irritation.
E.coli is a normal resident of the bowel,. Since the urethra is close to the anus, this bacteria from the large intestine can sometimes move from the anus and into the urethra, which is how it makes it way to the urinary tract. If the infection isn't treated, it can continue to infect the kidneys. UTIs predominantly affect women since they have shorter urethras than men, making it easier for bacteria to get to their bladders.
UTIs, which can range from bladder infections to kidney infections, are among the most common and debilitating bacterial infections. UTIs in the bladder and urethra can be treated if acted upon immediately. Young children and older adults have a greater risk of developing a life-threatening form of kidney failure.
E. Coli & UTI

Then, there are some strains that can cause diarrhea if contaminated food is consumed or drinking fouled water.But, there some versions of E. coli that make you sick by making a toxin called Shiga that damages the lining of the intestine. One especially bad strain, O157:H7, can causeabdominal cramps, vomiting, and bloody diarrhea . It is the leading cause of acute kidney failure in children . It can also cause life-threatening symptoms like adult kidney failure, fever, bleeding, confusion and seizures. Seek medical help if you have one of these symptoms
