Brief Answer:
UTI is not due to fifth disease...

Detailed Answer:
hello,
THANKS FOR The query,
If you have been experiencing increased frequency of urine and urgency then it is likely that you are suffering from a urinary tract infection. It is important to get a urine culture sensitivity done to isolate the organism and then direct the treatment. It is important to complete the course of treatment to reduce chances of recurrences. Also a sufficient water intake has to be maintained daily about 5-6 litres in a day to allow adequate kidney function and lesser chances of stagnancy and hence infection.
