Be dilligent.
It's better to err on the side of caution. Treat an infection promptly and properly to avoid any complications. An untreated UTI can get worse, and more serious symptoms can develop.
An untreated UTI could spread from your bladder and create an infection in your kidneys. This type of infection is called pyelonephritis. Kidney infections need immediate medical attention.
Symptoms include:
- A high temperature (fever) of 38C (100.4F) or above
- Pain in your sides or back
- Shivering and chills
- Being sick
- Confusion
- Agitation or restlessness
