Read the passage and answer the questions. The symptoms of urinary tract infections in older children are similar to those seen in adults. Cystitis manifests by suprapubic discomfort, burning, urgency, and polyuria. An upper UTI such as pyelonephritis manifests by chills, fever, and flank (the sides of the body, between the ribs and the ilium) pain. Any child previously toilet-trained who suddenly develops enuresis or daytime wetting should be evaluated. However, many UTIs in children are asymptomatic, and the younger the child, the more obscure the signs and symptoms. An infant with a UTI may present only with fever, lethargy, irritability, and/or failure to thrive.
