11Other Symptoms
In addition to these symptoms mentioned above, a urinary tract infection can lead to many other health issues that are typical of other infectious diseases. Frequent vomiting and nausea can happen when the bacteria spread to your digestive system. In addition, due to nocturia and pelvic pain, you can feel extremely exhausted and tired during the day. Sleepiness is also common as you have to wake up many times during the night to urinate. The combination of these signs can make you become weakened in the long run, both mentally and physically. Some other symptoms can be associated with a fever, such as sweating, shivering, body chills, as well as high body temperatures. In some cases, a few mental issues can happen. These include confusion, mood changes, or depression. They are especially more common in older people with weaker immune systems and cognitive functions. Keep in mind to consult your doctor as soon as you notice these signs and symptoms to prevent the infection from progressing and causing more serious complications. [11]
