    Uncomplicated urinary tract infections have no structural or functional abnormalities and normal urine flow, while complicated infections result from lesions or neurologic issues interfering with urine flow. Common urinary tract infections include urethritis, cystitis, and prostitis. E. coli is the most common cause. Lower urinary tract infections present with dysuria, urgency, and frequency, while upper infections cause flank pain, fever, nausea, and vomiting. Risk factors include anatomical abnormalities, medications, and neurological conditions. Treatment involves oral antibiotics like trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole or fluoroquinolones for mild infections, and IV antibiotics for more severe infections such as pyelonephritis.
