WHEN TO SEE YOUR DOCTOR ABOUT UTI:

If you think you have a urinary tract infection, you should see a pharmacist first if you’re a woman aged 16 to 64 and not pregnant, as they can often provide treatment, but you should contact a GP or use NHS 111 for urgent advice if symptoms are more serious or unusual—such as having a very high or low temperature, pain in your back or sides, blood in your urine, or if symptoms are getting worse or not improving within 48 hours; you should also seek medical advice if you’re pregnant, over 65, male, have diabetes, a weakened immune system, or keep getting UTIs, and call emergency services or go to A&E immediately if there are severe symptoms like confusion, drowsiness, or difficulty speaking, as this could indicate a more serious infection.
