I think I might have a urinary tract infection (UTI) but I'm not sure. Does anyone know how I can tell if I have one? I'm feeling cramps in my lower abdomen and the urge to urinate frequently. Are there any other symptoms I should look out for to know if I have a UTI? I'm really worried and would appreciate any advice or information anyone can provide.
