A member asked:

Hoping you can tell me, is urinary tract infection curable at home?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No such luck: You need to go see your doctor as antibiotics are essential to treat infection of the urinary tract. Otherwise you will suffer and the infection can spread from your bladder to your kidney which is more serious than bladder infection alone.
