With a urinary tract infection, the urethra, bladder or ureter can become inflamed, and the disease can also spread to the kidneys. Triggers are viruses or bacteria that migrate through the urethra into the bladder, attach themselves to the mucous membrane and multiply there like in an incubator. Almost every 4th woman experiences a urinary tract infection at least once in her life, and many suffer from them repeatedly. However, men and children are also becoming increasingly ill with urinary tract infections, which can sometimes take a complicated course. The book offers tips on prevention as well as therapeutic measures, ranging from simple self-help measures to the use of medication. For some time now, cranberries have been of particular importance.
