sometimes the symptoms of a urinary
tract infection can be reduced this can
be reduced by drinking lots of fluids
which dilutes the organisms and
therefore the symptoms would be much
less there are other things that can be
done like drinking cranberry juice to
sort of change the acidity of the urine
also one can have probiotics a spoonful
of one of these yogurts can help to
reduce the symptoms usually however it's
important if one keeps getting frequent
urinary tract infections that one sees a
urologist so that other investigations
can be done to see whether or not the
patient is emptying their bladder and if
there are any other causes of a urinary
tract infection example stones in the
bladder or in extremes in other
circumstances a bladder tumor there are
various medications that can be given to
patients to slow down the way that the
bladder is actually functioning these
medications are called anticholinergics
and these medications work by preventing
one passing urine as frequently as they
were passing it it would be good to
actually see a urologist
who can decide on the various treatment
options depending on the type of
incontinence that one has
