UTI hello. i am 22 years old and about 130 pounds. i had a urinary tract infection about a year ago and went to the doctor and wa treated for it. i have been now experiencing the same pain for about a week now and tarted taking some of the over the counter medicine to relieve the pain. the pain is not as horrible as i remember it being last time but as i mentioned ita been about a week now. if i do not get a prescription will there be further complications and will it eventually heal itself?
HI THANKS FOR ASKING ON HCM. First my advice to you is not take drugs on your own for any problem. UTI is not a big issue but its better to get it treated before the infection ascends which is not good. the treatment usually a course of antibiotics like ciprofloxacin, nitrofurantoin.. cranberry juice has been proved to be good against UTI so u can take that on a daily basis and also drink lot of water daily. consult with your doctor for the prescription.
