General Condition Help

Certain individuals are more prone to UTIs than others. For example the anatomy of women makes them more susceptible to UTI’s because their urethra is shorter and closer to the anus. But as a group, the population most likely to experience UTIs is the elderly. Elderly people are more vulnerable to UTIs for many reasons, not the least of which is their overall susceptibility to all infections due to the suppressed immune system that comes with age and certain age-related conditions.
