A member asked:
Does drinking cranberry juice cure a kidney infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: A kidney infection means that the bacteria has migrated from the bladder up to the kindey. This is a more severe form of a urinary tract infection that requires antibiotic therapy and frequently required hospitalization to give intravenous antibiotics.
