Urinary Tract Infection
A urinary tract infection can be a symptom of hydronephrosis. The most typical signs of a UTI include burning during urination, frequent urges to urinate and sometimes passing little to no urine, despite the urgency.
UTIs are also known as bladder infections, and they can occur in males and females. Patients experiencing severe pain in the lower abdomen or back near the ribcage with vomiting, nausea and fever should contact their doctor for emergency care.4‘Symptoms & Causes.’ National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, www.niddk.nih.gov/health-information/urologic-diseases/bladder-infection-uti-in-adults/symptoms-causes
