How to effectively treat chronic cystitis

The occurrence of chronic cystitis is relatively common, and there are Western medicine treatments for chronic cystitis. Some antibacterial drugs can be used. At the same time, patients should rest more and drink more water, and are prohibited from eating spicy and irritating foods.

1. Systemic supportive therapy: pay attention to rest, drink plenty of water, and ensure that the daily urine volume is >2000ml. Improve nutrition and avoid spicy food.

2. Find out the pathogen, eliminate the cause, maintain unobstructed urination, and control the primary infection focus.

3. Antibacterial drugs: Generally, take oral medications for 10 to 14 days. After the urine routine test is negative, take 1/2 dose for 1 to 2 weeks. Stop taking the medication after the culture is negative again. For young and middle-aged female patients with recurrent attacks, antibiotics can be taken before and after sexual intercourse.

4. Most cases can be cured if the primary lesion is removed promptly , the obstruction is relieved, and symptomatic treatment is given, but it takes a long time. If inflammatory bladder contracture develops, the prognosis is poor.
