The best way to treat a Urinary tract infection.

I was diagnosed with a urinary tract infection on September 24, 2020. I was startled because I am not a big fan of fast food or soft beverages. It was right around the beginning of the new school year. I was printing modules. By the way, I’m a teacher that time, I was having trouble peeing, and the urine was a bright yellow color. So, I was admitted to the hospital because I was frequently vomiting. That was the first time I had encountered such horrors. Then, on March 23, 2021, it happened again. When I was dehydrated and admitted to a local hospital, I had the same experience. I came to the conclusion that the reason why I experienced it is because I drink little water a day.

This Is How I Combat Urinary Tract Infection

1. Drink more water

I drink more than two liters of water every day, even when I'm not thirsty. I urinate on a regular basis and whenever I feel the need to empty my bladder. In addition, the germs must be flushed. Always keep yourself hydrated.

2. Avoid fast food and soft drinks.

I exclusively drink water and avoid carbonated beverages. Instead of snacking on junk food, I eat rice or bread when I'm hungry. These junk foods are high in salt. Soft drinks, on the other hand, are high in sugar, which bacteria can use as a source of nutrition.

3. Drink vitamin C.

Every day, I take vitamin C to keep my pee acidic. In an acidic environment, bacteria cannot survive. Vitamin C from fruits and vegetables is required in addition to supplementary vitamin C.

4. Consume probiotic beverages

I drink Yakult and consume yogurt on a regular basis. It specifically aids in the growth of beneficial microorganisms in our body. I can drink one bottle every day and it is also reasonably priced. I'll drink my yakult when I finish my lunch.

5. Proper hygiene

I maintain good hygiene by changing disposable sanitary napkins on a frequent basis. Wipe the entire surface from front to back.

5. Have Urinalysis every 6 months

Every six months, I undergo a urinalysis to see if I'm suffering from another infection. The test is inexpensive and accessible. You can visit your local health facility or diagnostic center. If your White Blood Cell count is higher than normal, you may have an infection.

6. Visit a doctor

When I'm having trouble dealing with it. I go to the doctor right away for a checkup. The doctor will prescribe an antibiotic to treat the infection by killing the bacteria that is causing it. I don't skip doses of antibiotics to destroy bacteria before the termination date. If you continue to skip your medicine, the microorganisms may get resistant to it.

7. Do not do Self medicate

Prior to this, I used to self-medicate. I did remember the medicine I was given the last time I had a urinary tract infection. The drawback is that bacteria are resistant to antibiotics and cannot be healed with the same treatment. So I stopped because the doctor stated it could hurt my body and that I should raise my antibiotic dosage. In the worst-case scenario, antibiotics are no longer effective.

Infections in the urinary tract can be avoided. It was just a matter of our way of life. Our bodies are influenced by our way of living. As a result, we must be particularly cautious about the foods we eat and the activities we engage in. This could be a reflection of our physical status.
