Cautions and Commonsense: Because of the pain and potential damage to the system, it is recommended that you see a medical professional immediately.
Urinary tract infection & cystitis: Painful urination, lower back and groin pain and fever characterize this condition.
What to take: To help ease discomfort and aid in the healing of the kidneys, Celery,Bearberry, Buchu and Couchgrass taken as a tincture or infusion will aid in the healing process. Berberine, as a herb or homeopathic remedy, overcomes bladder infections. Drinking Cranberry juice regularly prevents bacteria from attaching to tissues, but has not been found helpful in overcoming an infection that has already taken hold.
Cautions: If you believe the condition is due to a sexually transmitted disease, see a healthcare professional immediately.
Urinary gravel: Excess calcium or uric acid salts can form in the bladder and cause urination to feel gritty or rough.
What to take: Gravelroot and Juniper are strong diuretics and will help clean out these salts or mineral deposits from the bladder. It is recommended that you include Parsley in this infusion to help the healing process.
