Does Urthral dilation work for UTI?

I have been going back and forth to my doctor since Feb.2007 for UTI. She decided to send me to a specialist. He decided that I needed to have a cystoscope and my urethral dialated. He said that I was on the strongest meds on the market and was still having repeated UTI. He wanted to look in my kidneys and at my bladder. I had it done. My question is will this really stop the UTI or cause more problems. He said that after this I shouldn't have no more problems.

Any body had this done before can you tell e your outcome so I know what to look forward to.

Thanks

    Urethral dilatation is an old urologic practice that has not been scientifically proven. Rarely, a true urethral stricture is found. This requires calibration and probable reconstruction.
