Should I Be Concerned?

Question

I’ve been drinking a lot of water in hopes of flushing out a UTI I think I have, I was told that was possible if it was small enough. It’s been some days, and basically, if I don’t drink a lot of water, it will hurt when I pee, but if I do, it doesn’t. However, sometimes there’s still that distinct UTI odor, so I’m wondering if I should be concerned? Is it possible the bacteria could travel to my kidneys without pain? If it gets to my kidneys will it be too late?

Answer

Visit your doctor for antibiotics. If your UTI has passed 72 hours, it’s safe to say it’s past home remedies

Answer

Cranberry juice only masks the symptoms and keeps the infection from further sticking to your urinary track and bladder. If you are still getting symptoms, PLEASE go to the doctor and get antibiotics. If you don’t treat it, it cN spread to your bladder or even worse your kidneys which is painful and no fun (I have been there). I speak from experience- I used to get chronic UTIs and have tried all the “home remedies” but finally learned that antibiotics are the way to go when it comes to UTIs.

Answer

UTIs are caused by bacterial infection - therefore require antibiotics to completely go away and not just mask the signs. 
Staying hydrated is a good thing but it won’t cure your infection.
UTIs can migrate into kidneys and become a more serious infection. 
Please go see someone for evaluation and medication.

Answer

If i were you i’d go to walmart or cvs, any local drug store and buy cranberry vitamins, they will help you get rid of your UTI, or just cranberry juice, you’ll have to do that for about 2-3 weeks and your UTI should go away.
