Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are quite common, accounting for over 8 million visits to health care providers each year, according to the American Urological Association.

If you think you might have a UTI and you’re in the Somers Point, New Jersey, area, you can seek testing and treatment any day of the week at Cape Regional Urgent Care’s Marmora walk-in location only a short drive away.
We’re open during extended hours, even on weekends. Our wait times are short, and we don’t require appointments. Thanks to our on-site lab, we can perform many diagnostic tests—including UTI testing—and provide an effective treatment plan, all during the same visit.
Fast Facts About UTIs
UTI refers to a bacterial infection of any part of the urinary tract: the urethra, ureters, bladder, or kidneys. It’s a condition that’s far more common in women, but men can also develop UTIs.
Sometimes UTIs don’t cause any symptoms and clear up on their own. However, in many cases, UTI symptoms will include:
- Pain or a burning sensation during urination
- The urge to urinate despite having an empty bladder
- Pain, cramping, or pressure in the lower abdomen or groin
- Pink, cloudy, or bloody urine
It’s best to seek UTI treatment if you’re experiencing these symptoms, which are common signs of a bladder infection. If the infection spreads to the kidneys, symptoms may include fever, chills, lower back pain, and nausea. If testing confirms that you have a UTI, your doctor may prescribe antibiotics as part of your UTI treatment plan.
