The signs and symptoms of a urinary tract infection (UTI) in children may vary depending on their age and the severity of the infection. Some common signs to look out for include:
Frequent urge to urinate
Pain or burning sensation during urination
Cloudy or foul-smelling urine
Blood in the urine
Pain in the lower abdomen or back
Fever
Vomiting or diarrhea (in some cases)
In infants and young children, UTIs may also cause non-specific symptoms like irritability, poor feeding, and failure to thrive. If you suspect your child has a UTI, it is important to consult a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment.
