## Caption

News articles reported he was rushed to the hospital with severe discomfort from a kidney infection. 

Bacteria that cause urinary tract infections (UTIs) do not normally live in the urinary tract, but elsewhere like in the gastrointestinal tract. 

UTIs occur when these bacteria get into the genital area and travel up through the urethra into the bladder. 

From the bladder, the bacteria can travel up the ureter(s) into the kidney(s). You can have a kidney infection in one or both kidneys.

There are multiple behavioral habits that could increase the risk of having a kidney infection. Also, having certain conditions may increase the risk of a kidney infection.

There is also increasing evidence that there is a genetic predisposition to UTIs; that is, some people might just be more likely to get them regardless of their behaviors or other health conditions.
