probably important to quickly stop a current case with antibiotics. natural remedies, food included, can be helpful keeping it from occuring.
Yes. Acupuncture with herbs, and sometimes massage, can relieve a urinary tract infection gradually. I suggest you make an appointment.
The risk with UTI is that the infection moves up the ureters into the kidneys. Left untreated this can result in kidney infection which can impair kidney function, cause sepsis, and result in death.

I've had patients try to catch UTIs early and treat with things like cranberry juice. Sometimes this will work and sometimes it won't. I strongly suggest if you have a UTI or think you may have a UTI that you go and have a urinary analysis done. If you're positive for bacteria in the urine, get on antibiotics. A short course usually clears things up.
There may be Chinese herbal formulas that can treat a UTI, and taking unsweetened cranberry capsules can help treat and prevent them, but most of the time antibiotics are necessary. You might find an acupuncturist who can prescribe the herbs so you could give those a try if you didn't want to get on antibiotics.
Yes and no, If its too bad you will need antibiotics. Natural remedies can help and prevent UTI. The natural remedies, cranberries and other things disrupt the ph that the bacteria like. But when the bacteria is too strong you need antibiotics. The UTI can cause Kidney infection. From the bladder travels up to the kidneys. Increased risk for sepsis. You should always remember the kidneys are small and we dont regrow those cells so dont damage them. No kidney toxic natural remedies. So I say go get treated then focus on prevention. Fluids, not holding your urine for extended time, void after intercourse and wiping front to back, any other precautions.
The answer is sometimes yes and sometimes no. If you have a a painful UTI in progress, don=E2=80=99t try to cure it with health supplements. Get your urine tested and take the antibiotics specific to the bacteria causing the infection to cure it before it becomes septic. However, if you are susceptible to having frequent UTI=E2=80=99s there are some natural remedies you can take to prevent the onset of a UTI. A pure, high quality, urinary tract health supplement can provide a range of health boosting benefits including helping maintain pH balance, bladder and kidney health support and more. There are four natural ingredients that help prevent UTIs. They are D-mannose, cranberry, dandelion and hibiscus flower extracts - all have real research backing their effectiveness. D-mannose is a type of natural sugar that has been shown to be effective at supporting a healthy urinary tract which in turn may reduce the chance of UTIs. It is thought to potentially inhibit bacterial latching in the urinary tract and has been shown in preliminary research to support a healthy urinary tract. Research has also indicated that cranberry further supports urinary tract health and overall health in several ways. Dandelion and hibiscus flower extracts provide an additional range of health supporting benefits including both being packed with antioxidants, both supporting lower blood pressure, both promoting liver health and more.=20 When combined with a healthy lifestyle and diet, these four supplements can be very effective at supporting urinary tract health for women along with a range of extra health promoting effects. It is also important to understand why you are getting infected. Seeing a GI physician may be in order if there are problems with fecal material cross infecting you. Some sexual practices also can cause cross infection. Discuss this with your urologist or gynecologist. Toileting techniques also need to be examined for safety and prevention.

Usually it cannot. It is best to see your provider and control the infection. If it is not controlled it can travel up to the kidneys and that could be dangerous

A patient needs to consult his primary physician first because an UTI is a serious condition that can cause life-threatening conditions if it is not treated on time or with the right medication. Acupuncture and herbal medicine will be complementary to the allopathic treatment. Alexandre Hillairet, DAOM. Doctor of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. 2660 E.
