Having Urinary Tract Infection. Am I Allowed To Swim?

I was just diagnosed with a urinary tract infection and took my first Cipro 500 mg. I haven t had a UTI in 40 years and don t know how I got this, but I had bright blood in my urine. Am I allowed to swim in my own private swimming pool or swim in the salt-water bay?

Better if u avoid till ur urine report comes normal.
Also consult ur urologist as to why there is blood in urine.
It may be due to a stone in urinary tract which can also be responsible for infection.
