🚨 UTIs in Older Adults: Know the Signs 🚨
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common among seniors, but the symptoms may look different than they do in younger adults. Sometimes confusion, sudden behavioral changes, increased fatigue, or weakness may be the first warning signs.
⚠️ Common Symptoms:
• Confusion or changes in mental status
• Frequent or urgent urination
• Burning during urination
• Cloudy or foul-smelling urine
• Fatigue or weakness
• Loss of appetite
âť— Why It Matters:
If left untreated, a UTI can lead to serious complications such as kidney infections, sepsis, hospitalization, and an increased risk of falls.
