Acupuncture for urinary tract infection can identify and choose Zhongji, Guanyuan, Ren Yu and Yinlingquan. Zhongji is the recruitment point of the bladder, an acupoint on the Ren vein, located 4 inches below the umbilicus. It can treat anterior yin disorders such as dysuria (unsmooth urination), retention of urine (dribbling or inability to urinate), and enuresis. Guanyuan is a recruitment point of the small intestine, located on the anterior midline, 3 inches below the umbilicus, and can be used to treat gonorrhea (increased frequency of urination, dribbling and astringent pain), blood in the urine, and frequent urination and other diseases. Kidney Yu is an acupoint of the bladder meridian, located under the spinous process of the second lumbar vertebra, 1.5 inches away from the posterior midline, and can be used to treat frequent urination, enuresis and other conditions. Yinlingquan is an acupoint of the spleen meridian, in the depression between the lower edge of the medial tibial condyle and the medial edge of the tibia. This point focuses on treating conditions where water-dampness is internally stagnant (water-dampness stays in the body), such as dysuria. If you have a urinary tract infection, it is recommended that you seek immediate medical treatment; acupuncture can only play an adjunctive role, and needling requires a specialized practitioner.
