Brief Answer:
URINARY TRACT INFECTIONS

Detailed Answer:
Bladder and kidney infections are both types of urinary tract infections (UTIs), and they have some similar symptoms but also some differences in their presentation.

Symptoms of a bladder infection (also known as cystitis) may include:

Pain or burning during urination
Increased frequency of urination
Urgency to urinate
Lower abdominal pain or discomfort
Cloudy or strong-smelling urine
Blood in the urine
Feeling tired or shaky
Symptoms of a kidney infection (also known as pyelonephritis) may include:

High fever
Chills and shaking
Nausea and vomiting
Pain in the side or back, often below the ribs
Painful or frequent urination
Cloudy or bloody urine
Feeling tired or weak
If you experience symptoms of a bladder or kidney infection, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. Your healthcare provider may perform a urine test to check for the presence of bacteria or white blood cells, and may prescribe antibiotics to treat the infection. In severe cases, hospitalization may be necessary. Untreated kidney infections can lead to serious complications such as kidney damage, sepsis, and even death.
