Treatment and Care Options

The primary treatment for a UTI is usually a course of antibiotics prescribed by a doctor to eliminate the bacterial infection. It is crucial to complete the entire prescription even if symptoms improve early.

For supportive care at home, ensure you drink plenty of water throughout the day. Increasing fluid intake helps flush bacteria out of the urinary system. You can also use prescribed medications, such as urinary analgesics, to help manage burning sensations while waiting for the infection to clear.
