If you catch your UTI at the very first sign of symptoms (painful urinating, constant urge to urinate, lower abdominal pain) you may be able to flush out the bacteria with plain water. Drink plenty of water and it will dilute and flush out the toxins.Another natural remedy to try at the first signs of a UTI is baking soda.Mix 1/2 teaspoon in an eight ounce glass of water and drink. The baking soda will raise the acid balance in your urine.
When dealing with a chronic UTI is to make sure that the body stays properly hydrated. Drinking water helps the body stay properly hydrated. Many people contract UTIs because they have a weakened immune system. Having a poor diet and eating too much sugar can cause a person to have a weakened immune system.
The symptoms of a UTI include cloudy urine, a strong odor, low fever and a painful, constant need to urinate.Many women also experience fatigue, nausea, and a general ill feelingIf the infection is mild, it may often go away on its own without an antibiotic. However, a prescription medication can be necessary to fully remove all the bacteria so that the UTI does not return.
Homeopathic remedies may be used to treat UTI infections and the resulting symptoms. The specific homeopathic remedy chosen will depend on the symptoms being addressed. Belladonna is often used to treat UTI infections in which the urge to urinate is frequent and intense.Those who fail to pass a normal amount of urine can benefit from Clematis. Sarsaparilla is a good choice for those who have not had success in treating the UTI infection with other remedies. However, homeopathic remedies can be confusing and difficult to choose from without the help of a qualified homeopathic practitioner.
