Could Kidney Infection Cause Severe Left Arm Pain?

My daughter has a fever. It was 102, but we are giving her Advil and Tylenol every three hours. She is also taking sulfameth for a possible kidney infection. Today she screamed out in pain and said her left arm hurt. I am wondering if a kidney infection can cause this?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern and looking to the history given here I could say that if this is the renal infection or any pathology then it may not cause any problem in upper arm, but this pain of this could be due to something else, and this need to be investigated, have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
