oh poor you - really awful -
Drink lots of cranberry juice - will help flush out the infection (soory - no pun intended and take some live yoghurt to counteract the effect of the antibiotics.

lemon barley is good.alternate with cranberry.if you started them today you should start to feel better by tomorrow morning.

I was told (rightly or wrongly) that drinking lots of water helps, because it dilutes the infection so it's not so concentrated when you wee.

pinkteddy · 06/07/2007 19:18

you need to drink loads of water as much as you can stand. It honestly will help the burning - as knanny said - it will dilute the wee which means it doesn't burn so much. Also the more you wee, the more you flush the infection out.

If it's very bad sit in the bath to pee.

With water in it of course!

amateurarsedoctor, are you fully qualified>?
Like bigamist?
or do you just do amateur arse banditry?

amateurarsedoctor · 06/07/2007 19:34

I don't know about bigamist but I am a bonafide Ass Doc (Amateur) yes.

Having recently performed intricate surgery on myself without anaesthetic but with the aid of a mirror an elasticband and some cotton, I consider myself to be an enthusiastic if unqualified member of the Guild of Arse Doctors.

I'm thinking the Guild of Ass Bandits practice something a little less wholesome that home pile removal.

DarrellRivers · 06/07/2007 19:36

bigamist was a fully qualified paediatrician, but I take my hat off to you, amateur surgeon extraordinnaire.
Yes, beware arse banditry
