Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Is There An Alternate To Treat UTI Instead Of Antibiotics?
I know that I have a UTI. I have gotten them and bladder infections very often my whole life. I don t have insurance and want to know if there is any other way to treat it without going and getting antibiotics. I don t have the money. I drink water constantly and have taken AZO the last two days but I still have the symptoms.
You have asked a very genuine question which will be useful to many more also.
It seems you have reached a stage of resistance to specific or wider range of antibiotics having taken it indiscriminatory all these years.
The most appropriate way is to get culture and sensitivity test of urine the report will be made available after 48 hrs. It will pinpoint the most effective medicine to the kind of bacteria you are infected with.
But then you do not want to take antibiotics. If I were your doctor, in such a situation I would ask you to try to enhance the immunity in you and there are some proven approach in Ayurveda to combat such recurring UTI. These are safe herbals and in about 8 weeks you are likely to see reduction in incidence of such infections. Then it depends on your choice to continue to get rid of fully within next short to medium span of time. Duration depends from person to person.
Hope this satisfies your query. The reply is base on my clinical experience of three decades.
