How to recognize pyelonephritis and why it should not be allowed to drift

Pyelonephritis is an inflammation of the kidneys that provokes certain types of bacteria. Often, an infection begins in the bladder or urethra, and then rises up the ureters.
You can identify the disease, focusing on the following symptoms:
Pain in the groin and abdomen
Frequent urination
Urinating cutting pain
Chills
High temperature (38.9 and higher)
Muddy urine
Fishy urine
Weakness, fatigue
Cold sweat
Clouding of consciousness, confusion of speech - this symptom may be the only one in people over the age of 65
However, in order to make an accurate diagnosis of symptoms alone is not enough. Quite often, other urinary tract infections manifest themselves in a similar way. For example, cystitis. That is why, first of all, you need to see a doctor.
It is impossible to start pyelonephritis in any case, since in a neglected state it can become a catalyst for the most unpleasant consequences.
If the inflammatory process is not stopped in time, it can permanently damage the kidneys. As a result, edema and hypertension are associated with impaired fluid outflow and even renal failure.
In addition, with pyelonephritis, there is a risk that the bacteria that caused the infection will be in the bloodstream. In this case, a deadly blood poisoning may develop.
