10 Chlamydia Symptoms

Symptom #2: Burning and Painful Urination
A symptom that may occur in both men and women is the feeling of pain prior to urinating. When an infected woman has a low immune system and the infection progresses, the bacteria can cause an inflammation of the uterus/cervix. This feeling is also often described as a burning sensation rather than pain, or a pressure to urinate.
Sometimes, symptoms of chlamydia may be mistaken for a urinary tract infection. The difference is that chlamydia is caused by the bacteria Chlamydia trachomatis, while UTI´s are caused by other bacteria such as E. Coli. It is important to get tested and find out what type of infection you have, in order to get the proper treatment.
