Get Male UTI Treatment Online

UTIs are uncommon in men, so when they occur they are generally considered complicated infections. This means there is often an underlying cause such as prostate enlargement, a structural abnormality, or a recent urological procedure. A thorough evaluation is important to identify and address any contributing factor.

The most common symptoms include a burning or painful sensation during urination, increased frequency or urgency to urinate, cloudy or foul-smelling urine, and pressure or discomfort in the lower abdomen or pelvic area. Fever, chills, or flank pain can indicate a more serious infection involving the kidneys or prostate.

Yes. Bacteria can travel from the urethra or bladder to the prostate, causing prostatitis. Acute bacterial prostatitis can present with pelvic pain, difficulty urinating, fever, and chills. It typically requires a longer course of antibiotics than a simple bladder infection.

Unlike uncomplicated female UTIs that may be treated in three days, male UTIs generally require a longer antibiotic course, commonly 7 to 14 days. If the prostate is involved, treatment may extend to four to six weeks depending on the antibiotic chosen and clinical response.

Telehealth evaluation is appropriate for men with mild to moderate UTI symptoms and no signs of a severe or complicated infection. If your symptoms suggest kidney involvement, high fever, or urinary obstruction, you should seek in-person or emergency care. Our physicians will advise you if your situation requires an in-person visit.

Common risk factors include benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) that obstructs urine flow, urinary catheter use, kidney stones, diabetes, a weakened immune system, recent urological procedures, and unprotected anal intercourse. Identifying and managing these factors can help reduce the likelihood of recurrent infections.
