How Can UTI Along With Kidney Infection Be Treated?
I am on antibiotics for UTI and have had three episodes over the last three months. Now I am told I ALSO have a kidney infection. I have not been warned about any side effects or what side effect could affect antibiotics. Am I doing something wrong?
