If you have an actual infection, you must go to a doctor and get some antibiotics to cure it. If you just have irritation, there are several things that can help.

  • Drink as much non-caffeinated liquid as you can - cranberry juice is quite popular, but not necessary if you don't like the taste
  • Take phenazopyridine - in the US, this is marketed as AZO (Standard)
  • Wear cotton underpants rather than polyester - polyester traps more moisture near the body and irritates the urinary opening more
  • If you are female, always wipe your "private" areas from front to back, not back to front, to avoid wiping E. coli bacteria from your anus to your urinary system
  • If you continue to experience irritation, try showering instead of taking baths - soaking baths can irritate the urinary opening
