Did you know that a simple manageable condition like constipation could be giving your child a urinary tract infection (UTI)?
Dr Peninah Musyoka, a pediatrician at Machakos Children’s Clinic, says UTIs occur when the rectum is constantly full of stool or when urine is not coming out or going back, which incubates bacteria, hence causing the UTI.
