can a bladder infection clear up on its own?

Question

im pretty sure by what ive read on webmd that its a bladder infection. i cant really afford to go to the doctor right now so i was wondering if anybody knew if it could clear up on its own if i drink lots of water.

Answer 1

Drink cranberry juice and lots of water, there is an over the counter medication that will help relieve your symptoms, but it wont cure the infection.

If you do not get better, you really should find a way to get into the doctor. UTI's left untreated can turn into kidney infections which are very serious.

I hope you feel better soon.

Answer 2

It's tough to clear up an existing bladder infection without antibiotics and to let an infection go on isn't a good idea. Are there are free clinics in your area? You need a quick course of antibiotics. Yes, you should drink a lot of water, but more than that, also drink citrus (grapefruit juice, orange juice) or take a 1000 mg dose of vitamin C twice a day to start and then once a day to make your urine a pH unfriendly to bacteria. To help with the pain, try a product called uristat, available in any drug store. It's not a cure, and don't use it just to mask the symptoms, but it will stop the pain and irritation until you can get treatment. But really, check with your local hospital or community health to find free services you can access since you do need to see a doctor.

To your glass of warm water add 1 tablespoon of Organic Apple Cider Vinegar, this will help clear up the infection. You will need to do this 2-3 times a day, until infection clears up. Over the counter medications etc.. only serve to push the infection further up into the body, where eventually the med's can't even reach.
My method was used when my grandmother was a girl, and hey it still works today. Good luck.
