Home Remedies For Bladder Infection
Do you get bladder infections? Well if you do there is hope and you do not need to go to the doctor to find relief. You can actually get quite a bit of relief right at home. So the next times that you get a bladder infection get immediate relief at home, and try these home remedies for bladder infections.
A bladder infection or a urinary tract infection is very painful infection that is most common in women. If you have ever had a urinary tract infection before, then you know just how painful they are. You cannot focus on anything else because your body is going through hell.
A bladder infection very well might be one of the most painful infections a woman can have. You constantly feel pain and are in a stage of discomfort for the whole time. Your mind is completely distracted from everything else in your life since your focus is always on using the washroom, even though you dread it.
Bladder infections can make life very uncomfortable for those who have them. However, there is a lot you can do at home to make these infections less unpleasant, and get rid of them quickly. The best home remedy is to drink a lot of fluids. This is probably the single most important remedy for immediate relief and comfort.
Drink cranberry or blueberry juice daily to help combat and prevent infection. Both juices contain compounds that keep bacteria from adhering to bladder walls. If bacteria can't stick to the walls, they can't cause infection there.
However, some experts say that natural health remedies may be a better treatment. Because urinary tract infections are caused by E coli bacteria, this infection is a simple disease to treat naturally.
Antibiotics are often touted as a miracle drug. In some cases antibiotics are the best treatment. Unfortunately, antibiotics can often cause more harm in the case of urinary tract infections. This is because antibiotics weaken your immunity, leave your urinary tract unbalanced, and can make the bacteria infection more resilient and even stronger.
This would be the perfect treatment if you only had 'bad' bacteria. Unfortunately, your body has billions of tiny bacteria that are good and bad.

Why do you think that all my life, I have had to pee frequently after drinking a normal amount of liquid?
My doctor has never been concerned about it...but after I drink a 10 oz - 16 oz liquid like milk, juice, soda etc... I always have to frequently urinate until it is gone (like within 10-20 minutes). It always comes out clear when I drink this much. I never really get super thirst unless I don't drink a lot during the day either. But when I don't drink a lot everything is usually yellow or cloudy.
If I have a series of small drinks, it takes a while longer for me to feel the urge.
This has always been a problem for me with car trips, which makes me not drink anything during long ones haha.
So what do you think causes this? Small bladder? Weak bladder?
I am 22 years old now and it has been happening my entire life since I can remember.
It has never gotten worse and I don't have any of the other symptoms of diabetes.
I should say it's actually more than 16 oz...I estimated wrong. maybe 20-24oz

Could I have something else besides a UTI?
Last Tuesday, I went to the doctor with a UTI (I get recurring UTIs which usually last 3-4 days). I got a 7-day antibiotic (Macrobid). I am now on day 9 of the pain. I went to a urologist and got a stronger antibiotic, even though my urinalysis came up with no bacteria. What if it's not an infection? Is there anything else that would produce the same symptoms (hesitancy to pee, heavy feeling in bladder, weak stream, dull abdominal pain), because I've been out of work for 3 days now.
For those thinking STD, I've been tested... I've been married for 2 years and have had the same sex partner for 6 years, and we're both clean.
i have had regular BMs. no difference there. I am planning to call my gyno today for tests...
