Gouty Arthritis is a type of inflammatory arthritis caused by excess uric acid in the blood.
It leads to the formation of sharp urate crystals in the joints, causing sudden severe pain.
The big toe is most commonly affected, but other joints may also be involved.
Risk factors include obesity, high-purine diet, alcohol intake, kidney disease, and family history.
Treatment includes medications to lower uric acid, pain relief, and lifestyle modifications.
Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) are classified into upper and lower types.
Lower UTI affects the bladder (cystitis) and urethra, causing burning urination, urgency, and pelvic pain.
Upper UTI involves the kidneys (pyelonephritis), with fever, chills, nausea, and flank pain.
Upper UTIs are more serious and can lead to kidney damage or sepsis if untreated.
Early recognition and proper treatment help prevent complications in both types.

Catheter-Associated UTI (CAUTI) is a urinary infection that develops in people using urinary catheters.
यह अस्पताल में होने वाले सबसे आम संक्रमणों में से एक है।
Risk increases with long-term catheter use, poor hygiene, and underlying illness.

Complicated UTI occurs when infection is linked to structural or medical problems in the urinary tract.
It is common in patients with diabetes, kidney stones, catheters, or weak immunity.
Symptoms may include fever, flank pain, burning urination, and blood in urine.
These infections are harder to treat and can spread to kidneys or bloodstream.
Accurate diagnosis, targeted antibiotics, and managing the underlying cause are vital.

Recurrent UTI means repeated urinary tract infections, usually defined as two or more in six months, or three or more in a year.
It is more common in women due to shorter urethra and hormonal factors.
Causes include incomplete bladder emptying, poor hygiene, kidney stones, or underlying health conditions.
Symptoms are similar to regular UTIs — burning urination, frequent urge, and pelvic discomfort.
Prevention includes hydration, proper hygiene, cranberry products, and medical evaluation for underlying causes.

Asymptomatic bacteriuria means bacteria are present in the urine without symptoms.
It is more common in women, older adults, and people with diabetes.
Usually, it does not require treatment unless in pregnancy or before urinary procedures.
Treating unnecessarily can lead to antibiotic resistance.
Screening and treatment are recommended only in specific high-risk groups.

Kidney problems during pregnancy can range from pre-existing chronic kidney disease to conditions that develop or worsen due to pregnancy. Common issues include urinary tract infections (UTIs), preeclampsia, acute kidney injury (AKI), and worsening of underlying kidney disorders. Pregnant women are more susceptible to infections and fluid–electrolyte imbalances because of hormonal and physiological changes in the urinary tract

Renal tubular disorders are conditions that affect the kidney tubules, which play a crucial role in reabsorbing water, electrolytes, and nutrients, and in maintaining acid–base balance. These disorders may be genetic or acquired and can result in abnormal urine composition, electrolyte imbalances, or impaired kidney function. Common examples include renal tubular acidosis (RTA), Fanconi syndrome, Bartter syndrome, and Gitelman syndrome. Symptoms may range from dehydration, muscle weakness, and growth disturbances in children, to kidney stones and metabolic acidosis in adults. Diagnosis is based on blood and urine tests, while treatment focuses on correcting electrolyte imbalances and managing underlying causes.
