The pain she has right now is likely not related to the UTI event 2 months ago. Upper urinary tract infection, namely kidney infection is usually very symptomatic which includes back or flank pain (only one side most of the time), fever, shaking chill, severe fatigue and change in urine color. The current pain could be anything or nothing, observe for now, take Tylenol as needed for one day.
