    Default kidney infection

    Ok, so I think I'm getting a kidney infection...although I've only had 2 or so I'm my life, I always drank cranberry juice to help it go away. Well now that all I can have is water, what am I suppose to do?

    Ocean Spray has a Diet Cranberry that has less than 1 gram of sugar. I just finished a 10 oz bottle. It also comes in a large bottle. Hope you feel better soon.

    If you have a normal bladder infection cranberry juice is mildly effective, if it has gone to your kidneys you need real meds...

    UTI (urinary track infection) is cystitis and it makes you pee alot and often painfully. It is primarily in the bladder. As an EMT I have seen many women not treat their UTI and the germs worked their way up to the kidneys and that can be very serious. I know years back they would inject some dye into a urinary catheter and see what happened when it hit the kidneys on an Xray scan. I hope there is an easier way to check it out, but you really do not want to have cranberry juice as your only way to treat a UTI.

    Oh, I forgot to mention that with a kidney infection you will have blood in the urine and pain in your kidney(s). It's not fun.

    hope this helps explain things..with cystitis you always feel like you want to pee but can't.
