A member asked:
Was hospitalized for a kidney infection 3weeks ago.finished antibiotics and felt fine but now have symptoms again.could i still have an infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: It's possible that the infection was incompletely treated. The urine culture and sensitivities should be verified from the first episode and a repeat urine culture can be obtained.
