A member asked:
Is it possible for a klebsiella pneumoniae be a reason for a uti?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Oh Yes: This bug can definately invade the urinary tract system and causes uti. E. Coli is most common, but we see klabsiella often as well. Urine urine culture often will differentiate the culprit. Consult your doc. Good luck.
