Urinary Tract Infection Symptoms

Fever

Most infections cause a fever, and urinary tract infection is no exception. When the microorganisms penetrate the body and infect your tract, the immune system will be activated to fight against them. The internal temperature would be raised to kill these elements. That is why you would experience a mild fever in the early stages. If left untreated, the infection can progress and lead to a more severe fever that can be fatal. While this is a common symptom in many conditions, you should contact a healthcare provider when it occurs at the same time with other signs mentioned in this post. [3]
