Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) are common bacterial infections, but when they are recurrent, complicated, or affect men, they require specialised urological assessment. In men, UTIs are often a symptom of an underlying structural issue (e.g., BPH, bladder stone, or prostate infection) that must be definitively diagnosed and treated to prevent recurrence.
Book an AppointmentManagement focuses on accurate identification of the underlying cause and targeted antibiotic therapy.
| Diagnostic Focus | Key Management Strategies |
|---|---|
| Culture & Sensitivity | Identifying the specific bacteria and the correct antibiotic to prevent resistance. |
| Structural Assessment | Cystoscopy (visual inspection of the bladder) and imaging to rule out stones, strictures, or BPH. |
| Recurrent UTI | Identification and management of the underlying cause, often requiring correction of BPH or addressing prostate inflammation. |
Our specialists treat UTIs as a symptom that demands an investigation into the cause, not just the infection itself.
Unlike in women, a UTI in a man is rarely simple and usually indicates an anatomical problem, such as an issue with the prostate (BPH or prostatitis) that traps bacteria. A urologist is needed to diagnose and correct this underlying cause.
While antibiotics are the standard for active infection, our management also includes addressing the root cause and providing non-antibiotic preventive strategies (e.g., lifestyle, supplements) to reduce future reliance on medication.
