  • 6 years ago

But a new study published Tuesday in mBio might offer a new one: It could prevent UTIs.
UTIs can cause frequent urination, pain or burning while urinating, and muscle aches.
There were more than 10 million visits to a doctor’s office or hospital in the U.S. in 2007 for UTIs.
2 million to 3 million visits to an emergency room were also noted, reports Gizmodo.com
