<human>: I have a uti, I get them all the time and the doctors would prescribe me antibiotics and they would come right back. Ive tried everything. The only thing is now I dont have insurance and cant afford to see a doctor right now. Is their anything I can buy to cure it? Home remedies maybe?
<bot>: **1. Ideally urine sample should be sent for culture- sensitivity and colony count, before initiating treatment. As soon as the result of sensitivity test is available, treatment is started [or changed, if already started] according to maximum sensitivity.2. Since you don't have health insurance, even then predisposing factors to infection like: obstruction, calculus, diabetes should be properly identified and managed/treated [for which opinion of urologist is necessary since he may distinguish lower tract infection from upper urinary tract infection]3. Take plenty of water and fluids. Avoid: hot/spicy foods, salt, garlic,mustard oil, citrus fruits, alcohol,excess physical exertion. Take: Jagger with cold water, coconut water, amla, dates, musk melon, watermelon. A few teaspoons of baking soda diluted in cup of water, followed by at least 2 cups of water is effective. You may ask for prescription medicines like: tab Calgary, tab/syrup cyst one, Chandon Assam, usher Assam.
