What should be done about urinary tract infections?

Patient's question:

I went to the hospital today. It was the urology department. The detailed examination results showed inflammation. The doctor said it was a urinary tract infection. Why did I get a urinary tract infection? Is it easy to treat if you have a urinary tract infection? Will it be as prone to occur as a sexually transmitted disease?

Doctor's answer:

Urinary tract infection, there are upper urinary tract and lower urinary tract, so the treatment direction and difficulty will be different. As a man, it is not easy to have a urinary tract infection again, so once it occurs, it must be taken seriously because there may be some factors that cause it. The upper urinary tract mainly needs to pay attention to problems such as the kidneys and ureters. Many people may have related diseases, such as urinary tract stones, etc., so the treatment of the primary disease is still necessary.
