Bladder infection (UTI) can
be a long, painful and frustrating battle, especially for women. There are many
alternative treatment options available without the need for widely prescribed
drugs (antibiotics) that can only relieve the symptoms and often prompt
multiple side effects.
When E. coli (Escherichia
coli) bacteria sneak into the urinary track and stick to the bladder wall
only to multiply, it may also attack the urethra, ureters and the kidneys
resulting in severe infection. The suffers usually feel pain in the lower
abdomen, frequently urinate and pass the foul-smelling urine. Therefore, the
majority of women leave the doctor’s office with over 2.45 million
prescribed antibiotics every year.
Although taking antibiotics
can be a wise decision, even life-saving at time, it should not be made in
ignorance of their natural alternatives. It has been proven over and over again that an
E. coli infection, for example,
can be remedied naturally, that is without prescription drugs.
Urinary bladder infection is the second
most commonly occurring infection in the human body affecting mainly women
as they have a shorter urethra (in comparison to men). Due to this anatomical
difference, the pathogenic bacteria can get much easier into the bladder. It is
estimated that worldwide 40 to 60 percent women suffer from UTI at
least once in their lifetime. These numbers, however, can be reduced
significantly just by including the natural approach.
Natural Bladder Infection Treatment is Worth a Try
Initially, a bladder
infection may be ignored or, simply, underestimated. But when left untreated,
it may reach the kidneys and become a serious, life-threatening problem. Though
antibiotics are considered the standard medical treatment, many doctors have
noticed that urinary tract infections are becoming increasingly hard to treat
because of emerging resistance to current antibiotics. The problem is linked
with longer duration and multiple courses of antibiotics - as long as 6 months
to 2 years. Unfortunately, quite often bladder infections don’t go away even
after a long-term multiple antibiotic therapy. That’s why the sufferers should
think of the natural, drug-free ways of treating urinary tract infections.
Medical researchers and
practitioners also have demonstrated the efficacy of d-mannose
in preventing and treating e. coli infection supported by immune-boosting
complex herbal remedies that help to strengthen and rebuild the entire urinary
tract making it more resistant to further infections.
While urinary bladder
infection therapy should be the first line of treatment, it can also be considered
as complimentary to the conventional standard treatment. Contrary to standard
medicine, urinary tract infections can be remedied and prevented naturally.
Therefore, the prescription antibiotics don’t have to
be the only option available to millions of women suffering from acute and/or
chronic UTIs. Along with standard medical therapy, everyone should also take
under serious consideration the alternative UTI treatments to heal this common urological
problem safely and without side effects.
