If so, you might have it.
And keep yourself hydrated and if you can, drink REAL cranberry juice, the one not from concentrate and sugared down.

you can get over the counter meds called AZO. That should help with your UTI.
But your urine is going to turn a deep orange. Don't freak out cause its normal.
If that doesn't work as fast as you would like then you have to go to the doctor so they can prescribe you antibiotics.
Drink lots of water and UNSWEETNED cranberry juice.

I didn't take juiiice. I just went to emergency and got the doctor to prescribe me antibiotics... you shouldn't prolong Urinary Tract Infection because it could go to your kidneys, and that's never good.

the over the counter pills for UTI only reduces the symptoms, it doesnt get rid of it. Basically you go to the doctor and tell them "I think I have a bladder infection" and they'll run the test on you and if you have it, they'll prescribe anti-biotics.
It's also not just "unsweetened" cranberry juice that you should be drinking, it's 100% cranberry juice (no cranberry juice cocktail)

If you think you have UTI, you should go the doctor.
There are adverse effects like confusion for people with UTI so you should consult a doctor, not take a OTC drug.

If it burns when you pee, or if you constantly have to pee, but not a lot comes out, its possible that you may have a uti.
Go to a clinic. I'm sure there are walk in clinics where you live. Uti's can lead to more severe infections. Like kidney infections. And if it isnt treated right away, it could lead to kidney stones.
The best cure for it is Antibiotics which will be prescribed to you.
But for now, drink lots of water so that peeing won't be as uncomfortable.
Cranberry juice. None of that sugary cocktail crap that you'd find at the grocery store. Your best bet would be finding 100% cranberry juice at an organics food supplier.
