Have a Urinary Tract Infection ?

I absolutely hate the taste of Cranberry Juice, and I can only drink water, and juice….
so I need to know what kind of juice is okay for me to drink while having a UTI?

Cranberry Juice is horrible I know, but it’s the only juice that’s good for a UTI. You can take the Cranberry pills in the vitamin isle at any pharmacy and drink lots of water and that should help.
I hope that you’re feeling better.

I have had a UTI for almost a week (have not had time to go to the doctor yet, as I’m in college and it’s finals week) and yesterday I began getting very bad stomach cramps and lower back pain. My period isn’t due, so I know it’s not that. Does anyone know if the UTI could cause those symptoms?

Thanks.

I’ve had a uti for maybe five days now, and I’ve been drinking lots of water for the past few days.

I didn’t start drinking cranberry juice until today.

How much longer should it be? Also, is there anything else that I can do to get rid of it? Please help. Thanks.

If you have uti and you want to get rid of it naturally how much water and cranberry juice would you have to drink a day? Plus what soaps are best to use so that your skin does not get irritated? Please NO silly answers. THANX!

Typically cranberry juice and water are to Prevent UTIs from reoccuring. You need an antibiotic to get rid of it, then follow up with more cranberry juice and water. There’s no set amount to drink, if they keep coming back, increase your intake.

As for soap, I think Dove soap is really gentle on the skin but anything without perfumes should work for you.

Good luck!

Will getting a UTI in a month cause your period to be irregular or mess with the chances of being able to conceive that month?

No antibiotics were used, just a lot of water, cranberry juice, and cranberry pills.

I don’t think so. I also got pregnant in the middle of recurring UTI’s. To think that I was taking antibiotic pills that time. Don’t worry about it. You can still get pregnant. Just do your water therapy and cranberry juice. It really cures UTI’s.

I just got a uti yesterday i think from having my period.. herpes outbreak.. and yeast infection all at the same time =/ its extreamly painful and i need relief asap soo any ideas? I cant afford to go to the doctor.. is it absolutly necessary for me to take antibiotics? What else could i do instead? thanks!
No it is not absolutely neccessary for you to take antibiotics, it is neccessary for you to get rid of it though. You could clear it up using a product like cleartract, it always works for me no matter how bad the infection was.

I am pregnant and been dealing with urinary tract infections for a long time. I go to the dr and it’s always samething antibiotics and cranberry juice. It works for a little bit then it’s right back. Pleeeassseee HELP!!!

I was told I have a UTI and I am on Cipro but my lower back is hurting so bad but only on one side and I dont have any burning on urination or any fever. The only thing I have is trace of bacteria in my urine and a severe lower back pain. How do they tell the difference? My CBC came back good except for low level of B-12.

hi there, has your doctor concidered the possibility of kidney stones. Its a very simple diagnostic and i think what you are experiencing is renal or uteric colic pains ( which are the pains to your back) as the kidney stones are passing through to your bladder.
It may be a possibility!
Ask yourself this
Did your back hurt when you went to the doctors? did you tell him this if so?
Are you feeling or being sick?
Is your urine bloody or cloudy?
Do you get a frequent erge to urinate?

I am peeing quite often, even if it is not a lot. I have the urge to go, and little comes out. It is painful, I’ve seen a couple of blood spots… but not too many. Any help?

Yeah, you have a UTI. It’s caused by bacteria getting into your urethra, and causing an infection. There are two ways to get rid of this- see your doctor and he’ll give your antibiotics, or you can cure it at home. For at home, you’ll need to drink a ton of water, and get some cranberry pills. YOu don’t want the juice, as there is a ton of sugar in it, and the pills are more concentrated and work faster. Take three pills a day for the next 3-5 days, and you should be fine. Either way, you need to get it fixed.

i’m 32 weeks pregnant and i found out 5 days ago that i have a urinary track infection caused by group b strep. i have been taking anitbiotics for the past 5 days now and was wondering if it is safe to take a bath? I jut really need to relax. Thanks.

so long as your membranes are intact, it’s fine. just don’t make the water too hot! your infection is probably cleared up for the most part by now though, so i don’t think you should worry.
