How long does an UTI last for?!
Question: How long does an UTI last for.?
I got an UTI the other day (very painful & annoying by the way) and I was wondering how long they last for. My boyfriends had it twice and he didn't go to the doctor and just drank a lot of cranberry juice and water and was fine. Is this a good idea.? Or should I see a doctor.?Health Question & Answer
Answers:
See a doctor. An untreated UTI will turn into a kidney infection... and left untreated, the kidney infection can cause kidney damage.
In the mean time, drink a lot of water, use AZO for pain and make a doctor's appointment.Health Question & Answer

It should go away on it's own in a few days. If it doesn't, call your doc and they can give you some meds to help it go away. I agree with you, they are very painful and annoying!. One way to minimize UTI's is going pee right after you have sex. It greatly reduces your risk of becoming a victim to the most uncomfortable thing in the world! Health Question & Answer
