The UTI symptoms can develop quite rapidly - over a matter of hours, or more slowly - nagging for several weeks. Although not everyone with a urinary tract infection has symptoms, most children get at least some, especially:

It should be noted, however, that some mild cases of acute urinary tract infection may disappear spontaneously without any treatment.

All UTIs, though, should be thought of as the warning signs of something going on inside the urinary tract. They may seem unimportant at first, but they should never be ignored.

The symptoms are sensations or perceptions of changes in health experienced by your child and/or most likely observed by you as a parent. As opposed to medical signs, the symptoms are subjective, therefore they cannot be observed by a doctor.

Although this questionnaire does not provide a medical diagnosis, it can be helpful in figuring out the best course of action to address your child's symptoms. Thanks to it, you will be much better prepared for an eventual doctor’s appointment. This information might also help your doctor determine if your child needs a urinalysis to detect pathogens in the urine that point to infection, which is not always a routine practice.

Please fill in our five-part questionnaire below answering all questions thoughtfully, to the best of your knowledge. Within 12 to 24 hours, you will email* you back the results along with our brief comments (if necessary) that may help you get your child’s urinary health back on track. The information given is not intended to diagnose, prescribe or replace the advice of a physician or other healthcare professional.
