Cranberry juice is said to be very beneficial for UTI....I'd still see a doctor though- you don't want it to migrate into your kidneys ;-)
Have a blessed day :-)

You can treat the symptoms of a UTI with over the counter medications (AZO works pretty well) but in order to treat the infection itself, you will need antibiotics, which you would to see a doctor for.
That's funny...I'm currently suffering from a kidney infection. I saw my doctor yesterday and was put on antibiotics and pain medicine (kidney infections can be quite painful).
Drink plenty of fluids, get the AZO and see your doctor. A simple test is performed to see if you do indeed have a UTI. Remember, you can only treat the symptoms yourself. Get the antibiotics.

lots and lots of water and cranberry juice, there is also a medication on the market called AZO and if you have pain
it totally takes the pain away it is a wonder drug.
if it doesnt get better though you need to take some antibiotics so go see a doctor.

you don't, a UTI is caused by bacteria getting into your urinary system. It takes antibiotics to kill the bacteria.
