Try the following home remedies to ease your bladder infection -

  • E. coli bacterium multiplies almost double the time every twenty minutes. So it is very important to flush this bacterium by drinking lots of fluids. More the bacteria multiply more the pain it would cause.
  • Besides water other fluids like barley water, lime water with honey, coconut water, fruit juices and vegetable juices can be included in a day.
  • Take a hot soothing bath 2-3 times a day to relieve pain and inflammation.
  • Increase the intake of vitamin C in the form of ripe guava, oranges, and lemons in your diet. Vitamin C supplements (after consulting a specialist) would help.
  • Urinate before and after having a sexual intercourse to avoid pushing the bacteria further in the bladder. Maintain appropriate personal hygiene.
  • If you are susceptible to bladder infections prefer using sanitary napkins instead of tampons during menstruation.
  • Wear clean and comfortable cotton panties. Avoid wearing tight synthetic clothes.
