How long does it take for a kidney infection to kill you?
There isn't a specific time frame in which a kidney infection will kill a person. It will depend upon the extent of the infection, how long it takes to spread, and the person's body defenses. It may be as little as 4 days without treatment, and several months if the person is receiving continuous treatment at a hospital. Thank you for asking ChaCha!
