i have a uti and i no longer have my medicaid. is there a natural way to get rid of it? if i stop drinking sweet tea and start drinking water will it just run its course? or is there something i can take? im in so much pain. and i have to go pee so much i feel like im pregnant again
Also - if you're bleeding, it sounds to me like you may have a bladder infection. Those hurt way worse than a UTI. If you're still bleeding and in pain in 3 days, you need to go in an see a doctor. Blood is never a good sign.
Oh I feel ya. I used to get UTI's alllll the time. Then I found out it was because of the kind of toilet paper I used! (who knew!). AZO helps with the pain, but honestly, really chug water. Practically drown yourself - it will help to clear it up faster than anything else! Cranberry juice has been proven to not help much. My doctor said that was just a wives tale.
yeah cause I had one back to back and its not good to have cause they say its miss up your body and its can harm the baby
once you have an infection you usually need antibiotics. cranberry helps but its more of a preventative.
@mom2be96, I got then like that in the 2nd trimester. it even caused contractions. try cranberry if it doesn't seem to help you may want to go in, it'll be bad if it gets to your kidneys.
@parkers_mommy, im just glad i can make it go away without having to go to the doctor because when i get uti's i get them BAD. it hurts everytime i pee and for some reason i bleed too. i havent met anybody else who bleeds when they have one. the doctor said its weird but im fine
they have cranberry pills as well that helps or they have this cranberry liquid stuff, I forgot what it's called. but it's not the juice, it's actually meant to treat them.
cranberry juice actually does help its just some people get the cocktail juice instead of the 100% cranberry. ocean spray usually has the natural one. but that and LOTS of water to make yourself constantly use the bathroom to flush it out
