There are different types of infection associated with urinary tract infection and these include urethritis, cystitis (bladder infection), and pyelonephritis (kidney infection). The infection is caused by bacteria that enter into the urethral opening and initially infecting the urethra (urethritis). Bacteria from the urethra can travel to the bladder causing bladder infection and it can also travel to the kidney through the ureters causing kidney infection. The symptoms of bladder infection may include cloudy or reddish discharge and frequent need to urinate. The symptoms of kidney infection may include high fever, nausea, and vomiting.
