Suggest Treatment For Kidney Infection Causing Pain And Headache
Hi, my girlfriend has a kidney infection. and she's been on antibiotics since saturday afternoon. She's been running a fever for the last 10 hours that's been steadily climbing to 39 degrees celcius. She has a headache, her kidney pain isn't going away, and she feels confused. She's also taken tylenol with no effect. Are there other complications? Should she go to the emergency?
