10 UTI Symptoms

Symptom #2: Urgency
Urgency is used to describe the emergent urge to pee. In individuals with a UTI, when you feel the need to pee, it almost seems like an emergency! You often have to rush to the bathroom and accidents or leaks are more likely to occur. The urge becomes uncontrollable as the bladder muscle begins to contract before signalling that it is time for you to go.
Despite the urgent need to rush to the bathroom, patients often find that there is a very small amount of urine. The urge also starts although it has only been a short time since your last visit to the bathroom.
