Burning when you pee, needing to go constantly even if little comes out, cloudy or strong-smelling urine: a urinary infection makes itself felt right away and isn't worth waiting out. At Clínica Hispana Cruz 4 we test your urine during the visit and, if there's an infection, treatment starts the same day.
What the visit looks like
The doctor asks about your symptoms, how long you've had them and whether you've had infections before. You leave a urine sample in a sterile cup; it's tested at the clinic and the result guides the treatment. If infections keep coming back or the case calls for it, a culture is sent to identify the exact bacteria and which antibiotic clears it.
How to give a good sample
- Wash your hands and clean front to back
- Start peeing into the toilet, then catch the midstream urine in the cup
- Close the cup tightly without touching the inside
Signs the infection reached the kidney
Fever, chills, pain in the back or side, nausea or vomiting. If you have these, get seen that day rather than waiting to improve: a kidney infection needs stronger treatment.
Situations that deserve closer attention
- Pregnancy: a urinary infection must be treated even without symptoms
- Men: infections are less common and the cause should be looked for
- Diabetes: high blood sugar makes infections more likely
- Three or more infections a year: it's worth finding out why they recur
Keeping it from coming back
Drink enough water, don't hold it in, urinate after sex and finish the antibiotic even if symptoms clear early. Home remedies like cranberry juice don't replace treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. We test your urine during the visit and, if it confirms an infection, we send the prescription electronically to the pharmacy you choose that very day.
Not a good idea. They may not be right for this bacteria, and an incomplete course helps the infection return more resistant.
When infections recur, don't improve with the first treatment or occur during pregnancy, the culture identifies the exact bacteria and the antibiotic that works against it.
