  • It sucks that you're in this situation. :( Can you borrow money to see someone at Planned Parenthood? Put it on a CC? Bladder infections are dangerous because they can spread to the kidneys if untreated and then that will send you to the hospital.
  • I understand cranberry juice helps.
  • You are going to need antibiotics. Don't food around with a bladder infection...because you will end up much sicker then you are now. Go to the emergency room
  • cranberry juice, all natural yogurt with no added sugar, tons of water and go to planned parenthood, they will attend to you practically free of charge! good luck
  • lots of rest and lots and lots of water and grapefruit juice to flush it out. But if it is that bad you need help. here we have a system that anything related to sexual health for under 21s is free. do you have something like this where you live?
  • Sis is right; while cranberry juice is good for the urinary tract, it probably won't fight off an infection. You need to see a qualified health professional. The blue pages of your phone book should list the address and number of your local health department. They will be able to help you for a greatly reduced price, if not for free. If nothing else, they can refer you to someone. I understand the bind of not having money or insurance, but don't gamble with your health. Good luck.
  • I thought Planned Parenthood was only for women of child bearing age. I am 50 yrs old. Would they treat me for something like this?
  • Drink plenty of fluids especially cranberry juice.
  • You need antibiotics right away. Don't wait.
  • Any infection is dangerous and requires medical attention, however if you can't see a doctor (which is what I too would recommend) perhaps you can get an over the counter remedy like Azo: http://www.azoproducts.com Also drink cranberry juice as the others recommend. If the infection has just begun, the Azo and juice may be enough. Good luck, and I hope you feel better soon.
  • oh dat hurts had it twice... you really need to get chekd because it spredes to ur kdneys && it hurts bad.. you need to go to the emergency room before it'd to late...
  • A good oregano oil sold at health food stores. Oregano is a natural anibiotic. I understand the uncomfortable feeling have had alot in my day and trying to go natural. Antibiotics are bad for the good flora in your digestive system. That is how I got candida. From too many antibiotics in my system. There are people to help if you have a Whole Foods store nearby they are very knowledgable of ailments. Uva ursa is an herb that helped me its in pill form it took a while but by the end of the bottle I was fine. Do drink lots of water not the cranberry juice with sugar. It wont work. The cranberry juice at health food store taste yucky but it is all pure. Good luck.
