In all of my fifty years, I have never gotten a Urinary Tract Infection. Until yesterday. Thankfully I knew enough to be able to identify the problem at once and, even better, homeopathics helped me get rid of it within about two hours.
There is a ton of data you can find online that define and deep dive into UTI so I’m just going to briefly say that it is an infection, most likely bacterial, somewhere along the urinary tract which includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. It can feel like pressure and burning with the pain ranging anywhere from mild to severe.
My ‘go-to’ for anything acute like this is homeopathy.
The remedies I took for my UTI were Apis and Cantharis. I took 200C because that is what I had on hand. I knew my problem was acute because it came on suddenly, I had never had it before, and I also had no other issues before it, so I determined taking a high dose would be fine for me. Another remedy that I keep on hand for kidney issues is Berberine Vulgaris, but I did not need it this time.
Within minutes of taking my homeopathic remedies the pressure and pain started to subside. After twenty minutes and nearly full relief, I added in cranberry juice diluted with filtered water at a 1:4 ratio to which I added Bidens Pilosa and Barberry herbal tinctures. If I had had Juniper Berry on hand, that is what I would’ve used instead of Barberry. I sipped on my cranberry mixture throughout the rest of the evening and I also made a Marshmallow Root tea.
Within 2 hours, my ailment was completely gone although, I’ll admit, I assumed that in the morning, it would be back, but I was wrong! It was gone without any hint of further issue.
By having several homeopathic remedies on hand, a couple of homeopathic books, and an online resource I can generally solve all acute medical problems at home.
Chronic, stubborn issues that won’t go away or keep returning require a professional homeopath to unwind and get you back to yourself again. For chronic problems, I actually prefer the herbal route until it is under control. If you are looking for a professional homeopath, contact me at New Leaf Holistic!
