UTI issues.. Any advice and suggestions?
-
I'm mostly concerned about my health right now, I'm 25 years old, just recently had a blood test done the nurse told me my results were unremarkable and that I'm healthy, but my urine sample test says I have UTI, they told me some home remedies if I don't want to take any medication to treat it, which is drinking a lot of cranberry juice and water to flush away the infection, still going through UTI and wondering how long does it take to recover from it and get rid of it? I have mild stomach cramps right now, I'm trying to avoid searching on google since it does scare me when they mention something life-threatening. I'm really nervous and trying to stay calm. Any advice? Is drinking cranberry juice more effective than drinking water for UTI? I mostly drink water every day, but probably not enough.[link text](link url)

@sanian if you have a mild UTI, drinking plenty of water should help make it feel better within a couple days or so.
if you still don’t feel well after drinking water and cranberry juice let your doctor know so you can discuss the possible use of medication.
