Taken Cranberry For UTI. Now Have Stomach And Back Pain, Burping
I had a UTI last Wed and started treating it with a cranberry herb in high doses taken three times a day with meals. It cleared up but early Sat morning I was woken up with pain in mu upper stomach and mid back. Since then I ve had this dull pain in mu upper stomach and mid back and it seems to get worse after I eat and at night, I ve been burping a lot today. It feels like indigestion but with pain in my mid back.

Hi
Thanks for your query.
Please consult a gynecologist for your UTI.
The pain in the stomach and mid back indicates that you have a upper UTI ( that is, the kidneys and upper part of the urinary system ).
You would require antibiotic therapy to clear the infection.
Untreated UTI could damage the kidneys.
Just cranberry herb alone might not suffice to clear the infection.
All the best.
