Kayley has all of the symptoms of a urinary tract infection over a holiday weekend.

a. Possibly. If the infection was caused by bacteria, she will be fine, but if it was caused by a virus, she will need to see her doctor. b. Possibly. If she experiences a return of symptoms after taking the phenazopyridine for a week, she should see her doctor c. No. If the phenazopyridine has alleviated the symptoms, she should be just fine. d.
