I suppose it depends on which bacterial infection you have, how healthy you are, and how strong the particular bacteria is. Without treatment, sometimes infections go away on their own, sometimes they get worse, sometimes they cause long-term damage to your body, sometimes they kill you. See a doctor, antibiotics are easy to take - just make sure you take the entire prescription. If you stop taking antibiotics before you're supposed to - you run the risk of developing a much stronger infection. You can develop cellulitis, abcess, bacteremia, septicemia, renal failure, coma, and even death.
You will become sterile if PID goes untreated; worst case scenario is death.
If it goes untreated it will spread to the kidneys and shut them down so yes.
When H. pylori infection goes untreated for years, it can lead to chronic gastritis, which is inflammation of the stomach lining. Over time, this can increase the risk of developing peptic ulcers and may contribute to the development of gastric cancer. Additionally, prolonged infection can disrupt the stomach's acid production and affect digestion. Symptoms may worsen and lead to complications such as bleeding or perforation of the stomach lining.
It will just become reoccurring and very painful then you will have to have a scope down to see how bad the infection is and possibly be put on meds daily for months. It is best to just have it treated as soon as the onset happens - trust me I had chronic bladder infections and you do not want to go through it.
Penicillin, amoxicillin, carbenecillins, monobactums are the drugs for the bacterial infections. you have the tetracyclins, chloramphenicol to treat the same. You have the macrolides, aminoglycosides are there. You have the sulfonamides, trimethoprim, fluroquinolines to treat the bacterial infections.
Cystitis that is caused by a bacterial urinary tract infection can lead to potentially serious, even life-threatening complications in some people, especially if left untreated. These include kidney infection (pyelonephritis), kidney failure, and sepsis. Seek immediate medical care (call 911) if you have any of these symptoms:· Change in consciousness or mental status· High fever (higher than 101 degrees Fahrenheit) and chills· Inability to urinate· Pain on one side of the body between the upper abdomen and the back (flank pain)· Producing no urine or only small amounts of dark or tea-colored urineSo , the early that you treat your cystitis , the less pain that you will suffer , the Diuretic and anti-inflammatory pill can cure cystitis effectively and radically , all the cystitis suffers can have a try and they should never leave the disease untreated. I hope everyone can own a healthy body .

If kidney infection go untreated, you will get fever with rigors for a week or two. Kidneys have got natural outlet. So infection is washed out naturally in most of the cases. As body develops antibodies against infecting organisms, eventually. This can be hastened by giving liberal amounts of fluids to drink. Very rarely this infection will kill the person, specially old and debilitated persons.
It varies on the location and seriousness of the infection but generally speaking the wbc count goes down
ANY infection needs to be treated immediately with antibiotics, as you could become VERY sick if the infection enters your bloodstream. If you get "blood poisoning" and it goes untreated you could possibly die.
In males, it seems possible since the sperm cells pass through the urinary tract. As they are cells can be infected by bacterial or other micro-pathogens to become sterile and ineffective in fertility of the ovum. A more likely cause for infertility would be organ damage, and the testes are quite a ways from the areas that tend to get infected. In females the urinary tract is distinctly separate and in no way can effect fertility unless bacterial infection enters the female reproductive tract to infect the ovum or cause internal damage. It won't affect fertility in females as the urinary tract has nothing to do with the genital tract.
Ive noticed that if a patient with parkinsons goes even a few hours off his/her medication time, can lead to immobility extreme shaking. So if Parkinsons goes untreated i would only assume that the person would get those symptoms.
