Urinary tract infection is something that most of us suffer sometime or the other. It is a painful, often embarrassing condition that we have to learn to deal with. If you have chronic infection of the urinary tract, you should visit your doctor and seek a long term cure for this condition. You get an infection which first affects your urethra and then moves on up the urinary tract. When you suffer from this infection you experience a burning sensation when you pass urine. You also feel compelled to visit the toilet several times in a day but find that you can only pass a tiny amount of urine.
Drinking water is the best remedy to help cure this infection. The idea is that drinking water helps your body flush out the infection. Drink as much water as you can possibly manage. Fruit juices are also very beneficial in this condition. In specific cranberry juice is supposed to help people suffering form urinary tract infection. You can also get relief by dipping a soft cloth in cold water and using this as a cold compress on your lower stomach. Lie down and use the wet cloth as a compress just above your pelvic region.
