Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
I would need a few more details to answer your query. Please write back with the following details.
1. Are you male or female and what is your age?
2. Are you talking about urethral discharge/ or if female vaginal discharge?
3. For how long have you had these symptoms?
4. If urethral discharge, then is there associated pain while passing urine, difficulty in passing urine, blood in urine, fever etc?
The symptoms of a kidney infection would include high fever, shivering, chills, loss of appetite, pain in lower back and sides etc.
Regards,
