Hi, Thanks for asking. Based on your query, my opinion is as follows. 1. Yes, UTI if left untreated, the infection can travel up and affect the kidneys. 2. If your urine examination is negative and you do not have pus cells in urine, you do not have urinary tract infection. A Culture of urine sample would definitely confirm it. 3. Possible cervical infection. Get a pap smear done. If it shows inflammatory smear, you will require vaginal douching and oral antibiotics. Meet your doctor to get a pap smear done. Hope it helps. Any further queries, happy to help again.
