How much time does it take for a kidney infection to be severe?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Why wait?: if you have a kidney infection, it's better to get treated sooner than later. Pyelo can have complications such as abscess formation, kidney injury, etc. Most can be treated outpatiently with simple antibiotics
