Skipping antibiotics for a UTI? While some mild cases might clear up on their own, here’s what you need to know.
Can a UTI Go Away Naturally?
Sometimes, yes—but it’s not guaranteed.
- Mild, lower UTIs (just in the bladder) may resolve in **7–10 days**.
- If the infection moves to the **kidneys**, it can become serious—and painful.
Warning Signs It’s Not Going Away
- Fever or chills
- Back or side pain
- Nausea or vomiting
These are signs of a kidney infection, and you need medical help—fast.
