I am female - 85 yrs and suffer from constant bladder infections - I thieve antibiotics but does not work. HELP!

Answers:

It is important for your doctor to in actuality get a culture from the urine, to be sure here really is an infection. AND to be sure you are being treated next to the right antibiotics.
There are other conditions that can cause deeply similar symptoms (urinary frequency, pain, leakage). So tell to your doctor, and make sure he or she have really made an accurate diagnosis.

Ask about "interstitial cystitis" (he will be impressed). This is a condition that can make happen chronic bladder infections which never really go away. It take a special procedure to diagnose this, not just a culture. The treatment is a moment or two different, also.

If it is simply recurrent bladder infections, some doctors will contribute an antibiotic like Macrodantin which you lug every few days for a few months to keep it from coming wager on. Another thing to ask more or less!

I would NOT recommend Uristat, an over-the-counter medication. It does nothing to cure an infection, and can in truth mask the symptoms so you reflect on it is better when it is not. This could be dangerous, since it could progress to your kidneys while you are thinking you are OK. (also it have been connected with bladder cancer)

Good Luck!

If you can't stand the taste of cranberry liquid you can get it contained by the form of a pill in the vitamins clause. Cranberry juice is proven to facilitate keep the urinary tract fit because it makes the urine more sour and bacteria can't survive contained by it. If you do already use cranberry juice, I don`t know you should discuss with your doctor the option you have. I don`t know you have an underlying medical problem.

Boy oh boy do I have a feeling ya'. I'm only 15 years 11 months and I hold reflex of the urinary tract. Heres what I do.

3) When you're in the shower be VERY discreet not to get soap inside of you and rinse out next to the shower head first after every shower. Just use cold water and agree to it rinse you off.
4) when going to the bathroom, sit beside your legs open and when youre done wipe front to rear legs. Because back to front can bring germs from you bottom to your urinary tract.

6) WATER WATER WATER. It's your best friend, even if it burns to pee.
