Urinary Tract Infection, There’s a Remedy! Enthusiastic Netizen (Qingzhuyuan, QQ: 1474456700): Hello, Teacher Hu, I have a traditional Chinese medicine prescription from Dr. Chen Wushan for treating urinary tract infections. This condition is very painful and distressing, and I have personally suffered from it—experiencing urgency, frequent urination, and cloudy urine. There are few remedies for this condition in your space, so I’d like to share this prescription for others to use. Its effectiveness is beyond doubt; I’ve used it myself and have also prescribed it to others multiple times, with excellent results! **Prescription Composition:** – *Bai Hua She She Cao* (Hedyotis diffusa) 25g – *Bai Jiang Cao* (Patrinia scabiosifolia) 15g – *Yi Mu Cao* (Leonurus japonicus) 12g – *Pu Gong Ying* (Taraxacum mongolicum) 12g – *Che Qian Cao* (Plantago asiatica) 15g – *Bai Tong Cao* (Tetrapanax papyrifer) 6g **Usage:** Decoct in water and take twice daily, in the morning and evening. **Modifications:** – For significant urethral pain, add *Hu Po* (Amber) 1.5g (to be taken dissolved) and *Bai Tou Weng* (Pulsatilla chinensis) 15g. – For blood in urine, add *San Qi* (Panax notoginseng) 3g (to be taken dissolved) and *Bai Mao Gen* (Imperata cylindrica) 15g. – For milky urine, add *Bi Xie* (Dioscorea hypoglauca) 15g. – For proteinuria, add *Sheng Huang Qi* (Astragalus membranaceus) 50g. – For significant lower abdominal pain or distension, add *Xiang Fu* (Cyperus rotundus) 10g. I have slightly modified this prescription, adding *Bai Tou Weng* (Pulsatilla chinensis), which was not mentioned in the original formula. The results have proven to be even more effective. After symptoms disappear, continue with the original prescription for a few days to consolidate the treatment, while omitting *Bai Tong Cao*. Through your platform, I hope this can bring relief to patients suffering from this condition. Let traditional Chinese medicine expand its reach, alleviating the burden and pain of patients. There’s no need to resort to toxic treatments at hospitals, which often lead to recurrence, adding to the physical and psychological burden and suffering! **Contributor:** Teacher Zhao Qiao
