It depends on the bacteria causing the infection. Most common use is strep or staph; but LGV can cause LGV urethra infection that is caused by - Chlamydia trachomatis (or) UTI - Mycoplasma hominis -
Erythromycin is an antibiotic approved to treat a wide range of infections caused by bacteria, such as streptococcal infections of the skin, ears, and sinuses, pneumococcal pneumonia, chlamydia, bronchitis; diphtheria; pneumonia; rheumatic fever;, certain venereal diseases, and other infections. UTI - Mycoplasma hominis -
Lymphogranuloma venereum: (LGV). An uncommon genital or anorectal (affecting the anus and/or rectum) or urethra infection that is caused by Chlamydia trachomatis.
Once LGV is diagnosed, it is usually treated with doxycycline 100 mg twice per day by mouth for 21 days. If this is not an option, for example, because of intolerance to the drug, erythromycin base 500 mg four times per day by mouth for 21 days can be used as an alternative.
A person who has been sexually exposed to a person with LGV should be examined for signs or symptoms of LGV, as well as for chlamydial infection of the urethra, since the LGV and urethral strains (types) of Chlamydia trachomatis can co-exist. If exposure occurred within 30 days of the onset of their partner's symptoms of LGV, the exposed person should be treated.

to get rid of the waste in our body that is ot neded to help the body finction
yes it will help
That is what some sites claim. It did not work for me, if what I did counts. I took high quality cranberry supplement tablets. They did nothing. That UTI/bladder infection was the sickest I ever remember being, at home. I had a very high fever, and a strong antibiotic finally got rid of the infection. Cranberry juice is delicious and healthful, but don't mess with bladder infections. It's a step away from some serious kidney involvement.
Bladder pressure pain can be relieved with over the counter medications. Emptying your bladder more often can also help get rid of this pain. Seeing a doctor is necessary.
Water. LOTS of water. And cranberry juice. Those should be your main beverages when you have a bladder infection. Other juices are OK, but not as helpful as cranberry. And alcohol should wait until the infection is over. It can irritate your bladder even when it is not infected, there is some information on the internet about a possible link between alcohol consumption and bladder cancer. Also, no caffeine should be consumed while you have a bladder infection.
Other "good" germs help fight infections.Antibiotics are used to get rid of "bad" germs.
No, infact it is likely to cause an infection.
If you actually take a bath in your own urine it will help the infection. Heard it from a doctor  hope it helps
Cranberries are good, drinking it or eating it, it helps or like vitamins that are made of cranberries, you can find it at a CVS store or Rite Aid. Just ask someone that works there.
Regularly trimming and filing the infected nail reduces the amount of infection and can help eliminate the spreading of infection. A process called debriding (usually done by a podiatrist) involves filing down any part of the nail thickened by infection. Because, if treated properly, the infection should grow out with the nail, this maintenance will help you to get rid of your toenail fungus faster, and reduce the nasty appearance of the infection.
You need to ask your doctor or go to the clinic to get an antibiotic, and every infection is different, so only certain antibiotics will help each different infection.
Definitely not recommended; use an antibiotic like penicillin or amoxisilin
