Uncomplicated vs Complicated UTIs

Uncomplicated vs Complicated UTIs

Not every UTI is the same.
Some are simple and easy to treat online; others require in-person care.
This guide helps Nevada patients understand the difference.

What Is an Uncomplicated UTI?

This is the kind most people experience.

Typical signs:
  • Burning when you pee
  • Feeling like you have to go often
  • Lower bladder pressure
  • Cloudy urine
Safe to treat online if you are:
  • Non-pregnant
  • No fever
  • No flank/back pain
  • No vomiting
  • No underlying kidney conditions

Telemedicine works extremely well for this group.

What Is a Complicated UTI?

A UTI is considered “complicated” when symptoms are more severe or riskier.

Signs include:
  • Fever
  • Chills
  • Flank or kidney pain
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Male UTI with unusual symptoms
  • Pregnancy
  • Diabetes or kidney disease
  • Recurrent UTIs
  • Recent urology issues

These require testing, imaging, or in-person care.
