Hello, As you are having urinary tract infection and symptoms are suggestive of the UTI. The symptoms of UTI will be fever associated with chills, pain while passing the urine, burning sensation while passing urine and increased frequency of urination. But as you are having pain in the arms it maynot be due to UTI but it may be due to other associated infections. This arm infection should evaluated by proper history and examination. Thank you
