What are some good things to do at home to help cure or relieve a UTI (urinary tract infection)? I've heard that drinking tons of water and d-mannose to acidify your urine and wash out the bacteria helps. Are there any other home remedies?
(note: I do believe in taking antibiotics, just looking for other things that'll help)
Try this site for some solutions to help with drinks to try and what to avoid, also lists possible causes. There are many over the counter solutions but there is probably something to help sitting in your food cupboard. Cleartract is a favourite of mine but as it can be sour I buy the raspberry with d-mannose. Home made barley water is good.

Attention Ladies, this is Suzi, many people have been writing in asking what the stuff was that I used to clear up my UTI last week, so I wanted to put the link to this stuff here
It is called CT - DM 
Wash yourself from front to back using anti-bacterial soap, and make sure you get all of the soap off of your skin when you're done. Stay dry, and drink acidic drinks and water. It may clear up on it's own. If it is not gone in a week or so, a doctor will give you a tablet to speed the healing process, but not necessarily anti-biotics.
It will probably heal on it's own. Be smart.:)

Water to help wash out your system and cranberry juice to acidify are the only home remedies that may help. Many UTI are not cureable with home remedies.

Not sure that there is much more to do except the water and cranberry juice. There are also those Cleartract pills that other people have told me help. I'm super prone to UTIs and I finally just started drinking a small glass of cranberry juice every day and haven't had a problem for over a year now.
