Are there any ways to treat a uti at home? without the use of antibiotics?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not successfully: Antibiotics are needed to treat a true urinary tract infection. These are caused by bacteria and the bacteria must be killed. Home remedies such as cranberry use may make your more comfortable but won’t stop the infection
