Symptoms of UTIs in cancer patients are similar to those in the general population but may be more severe. Common symptoms include:
A frequent urge to urinate Burning sensation during urination Cloudy or strong-smelling urine Pelvic pain Fever and chills, which can indicate a more serious infection
Given their compromised immune systems, cancer patients might experience these symptoms more intensely, and the infection could spread more quickly to the kidneys or bloodstream.
