Try the following home remedies to cure your bladder infection -
- E coli bacterium is the main cause for a bladder infection, if it is not flushed constantly it can multiply almost double the time every twenty minutes. So drink lots of fluids to avoid this and flush the existing bacterium. Fluids can be in the form of plain or boiled water, barley water and coconut water, lime water with or without honey, unsweetened fruit and vegetable juices.
- Soak yourself in a warm water tub for 2-3 times a day. This will help relieve pain and inflammation.
- Vitamin C in the form of ripe guava, lemons and oranges when included in your diet would also help.
You can even consult a specialist for vitamin C supplements. - It is important to urinate before and after having a sexual activity. This will avoid pushing the bacteria further in the bladder and thus less pain.
- During menstruation prefer using sanitary napkins instead of tampon, especially if you are susceptible to bladder infections.
- Wear comfortable and washed cotton panties, prefer changing them before going to bed. Avoid wearing tight synthetic clothes.
