As a former sufferer myself, I often think that only a fellow sufferer can truly understand just how excruciating the pain from a UTI can be. After many intermittent years of antibiotics, I finally discovered how to cure a UTI naturally.
Most people do rely on frequent antibiotic prescriptions and this is understandable. When you have such pain, you want something to take it away and when your doctor hands out antibiotics, few would question this. Indeed, they seemed to work for me at first, but I eventually found that they became less and less effective at taking away the symptoms and that the frequency of my attacks increased.
Most natural health practitioners now agree that antibiotics are not an effective way to treat this condition but that you can usually cure a UTI naturally without antibiotics within a day. UTI's are usually caused by the E.coli bacteria and by flushing this from your system and by using remedies to neutralize the symptoms and kill the bacteria, you can achieve relief very quickly.
To start off, you need to drink plenty of water. Try to have at least 16 ounces of water every couple of hours during the day. Although this might make you want to urinate even more, this will be a relief from the pain you are experiencing and you should not try to hold it in.
Next, strengthening your immune system can leave you better able to fight infection. Take a good all-round supplement with the addition of vitamin C and improve your diet my eating plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables.
Drink some unsweetened cranberry juice. This contains a component which prevents bacteria adhering to the bladder walls and can help to cure a UTI naturally
To help with pain relief, try a warm bath or a heat pad on your abdomen.
