Antibiotics have been unsuccessful treating a chronic recurring uti. i'm paraplegic and use catheterisation to urinate. i've been researching phage therapy as an alternative to treat the uti. can you be of assistance with furthering this?

Phage therapy: If you have any questions about phage therapy, feel free to initiate a consult with a physician to discuss it. Your local urologist can guide you better if and when it can be utilized in your case. Take care.
