A member asked:
Can drinking a lot of water help if you have a urinary tract infection if you can't go to the doctor?

Fluids: This is where the wive's tail of cranberry juice came from. If you drink enough fluids, you can wash it away.

Can help till RX: Drinking lots of water can be a stop gap measure until you get a prescription for antibiotics. Uti might clear up eventually, but we don't know if this UTI will turn into a chronic uti/cystitis or if it will ever ckear up on its own.
