Treating a UTI at home without consulting a medical professional can be risky

Morgan Cole, MSN, APRN, FNP-C, shares what the symptoms of a urinary tract infection may be and how to properly treat it.

Treating a UTI at home without the guidance of a medical professional is risky. While you may have had UTIs before and know what’s going on, home remedies like cranberry juice and other fluids aren’t likely to take care of the issue. It may be routine, but an infection in your urinary tract needs to be taken seriously.

I have never seeked medical consultations it usually just goes away on its own.
I’m not sexually active in fact I’m a virgin, but I hold my bladder allot especially at work as it’s a long process to go toilet, finger print scan, boot wash, wash hands, take uniform off, change work boots to personal boots walk all the way to the toilet.
Also someone needs to watch my area while I go so I usually just hold it till lunch break.

Do a video on Staphylococcus epidermidis that cause UTI. I couldn't not get rid of it 2 years. I tried all kind of uti medicine but in vain. I got healed when i took an African herb powder in tea which got rid of it in 8hrs.
