A member asked:

I can't get to a doctor but i have a horrible bladder infection, i really need to get rid of it without the visit, what can i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need Med: The bladder is connected to the kidneys. Get an appropriate antibiotic so this doesn't turn into a life-threatening sepsis. If it's as horrible as you say, it might not take long to slide upward.
