What Causes UTI In Case Of Reiter S Syndrome?

I am a 61 year old male --- I have chronic bladder inflammation and irritation as a result of Reiter s Syndrome, this some times causes pain and interrupted and lots of dribbling at the end. Now I have been diagnosed with a UTI as well. Is this normal for patients with Reiter s Syndrome? Are there any other possible causes for a UTI in a male my age?
