Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Urinary tract infection can be contagious.
For further evaluation, I suggest to do a urine culture which can confirm the bacteria and proper treatment.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contappct me again.
Kind regards!
