Uti Infection Remedies For Children
So your child finds it painful to pee. Is there something you can do? Before you make a beeline for the drugstore and fork over cash for medication you're not even sure would work, try these UTI infection remedies for children first.
Blueberry or Cranberry Juice - These two juices are said to lessen the infective bacteria's ability to cling to bladder walls. This makes it easier for the bacteria to be expelled via urine.
Pineapple - This fruit is tasty so getting your child to eat or drink it should not be a problem. Pineapple is a good remedy for UTI because it reduces inflammation, thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties.
Yogurt - Does your child love yogurt? If so, treatment just got easier. Buy some yogurt, and give it to your child. Studies show that yogurt reduces the symptoms of UTI.
Water - Hydration improves well-being, and what better and cheaper way to hydrate than with water? Among all UTI infection remedies, water therapy is the easiest to do. It is also the cheapest. What water does is dilute the concentration of bacteria, making it easier to flush harmful bacterial out of your child's system.
Of course, the best form of treatment is still prevention. If you do not want your child to writhe in pain ever again, follow these tips.
1. Most children who are toilet-trained cannot wait to leave the bathroom. Sometimes, they even ignore their full bladder just so they could continue playing. Encourage your child to urinate once every two to three hours.
2. Make sure your child keeps intake of the 4 Cs minimal: caffeine, citrus (in high amounts), chocolate, and carbonated drinks.
3. Encourage proper hygiene. Girls should wipe from the front to the back, never the other way around.
These UTI infection remedies should help your child feel better. Try them!
