A member asked:

Was just seen in the er for ab pain and high fever. diangosis w/ a kidney infection but have had no and have no painful urination. is it possible?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Infection of the kidney may not be associated with burning on urination which is common with infection of urinary bladder. Please complete the course of treatment even if you start feeling better before the course is finished. See this site for info. http://www.webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/kidney-infections-symptoms-and-treatments.
