Common knowledge about daily care for cystitis

Are you curious about cystitis? Do you know how to take care of patients with cystitis on a daily basis? Speaking of cystitis, I believe many of you have experienced its pain. As long as everyone takes more precautions in life, cystitis will not come to you on its own. Modern times are an open era, and sexual intercourse between couples has become commonplace. The relationship between sex and cystitis comes close at this time, so we should also pay more attention to sexual hygiene.

Recently, American doctors found the triggering factors of sex and cystitis while conducting a large series of prospective studies.

The study found that on average each person suffers from acute cystitis about 0.7 times a year. Among unmarried college girls, those who had no sexual intercourse in the week before the study had a relative risk of cystitis of one, while those who had sexual intercourse seven times in the week before the study had a relative risk of cystitis that jumped to nine (the average expected value of sexual intercourse for this group of women was 6.7 times a month).

What are some ways to reduce and prevent post-coital cystitis?

Doctors used to recommend urinating after sexual intercourse, but according to the above research, this does not reduce or prevent cystitis.

Avoid using a diaphragm plus spermicide cream as a contraceptive method.

1. Patients with cystitis should pay attention to the following matters in their daily life:

1. Try to empty your urine as much as possible before having sex with your partner and do not hold your urine. Holding urine will prolong the contact time between the bacteria in the urine and the bladder, increasing the risk of worsening cystitis.

2. Patients with cystitis can try drinking more high-concentration fruit juice, which can reduce the adhesion of bacteria on the bladder wall and urethra.

3. In daily life, you should maintain the habit of urinating every 2-3 hours, and pay attention to adding vitamin B group, bifidobacterium factor, etc. to your diet.

4. Drinking plenty of boiled water can help flush out the bacteria adhering to the urethra and effectively avoid the possibility of bacterial invasion.

5. Both men and women should clean thoroughly after sexual intercourse. Patients with cystitis should go to the urology department of a regular professional hospital for medical treatment. They should also pay attention to preventive health care in daily life to minimize the chance of recurrence of cystitis.

6. Do not hold your urine for a long time. When you feel the urge to urinate, you should urinate immediately without waiting too long. And try to urinate as completely as possible each time. Don't wear tight underwear.

2. Patients with cystitis should pay attention to the following points in their diet:

1. Snails, corn, mung beans, and green onions can help relieve symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and pain when urinating.

2. Avoid eating spicy and sour foods, such as strong liquor, chili peppers, raw vinegar, sour fruits, etc.

3. Caffeine can cause the bladder neck to contract and cause spasmodic pain in the bladder, so you should drink less coffee.

4. Eat more diuretic foods, such as watermelon, grapes, pineapple, celery, pears, etc.

5. Drink plenty of water and maintain a daily urine output of at least 1500 ml.

In addition, patients with cystitis should avoid eating chicken, peppers, fish, shrimp, beef, seafood, pickles, and can only use vinegar, salt, and MSG as seasonings (do not use other seasonings). If the patient does not control his diet well, the treatment time will be prolonged.

Through the above introduction, I believe everyone has understood the explanation of how sexual life leads to cystitis. Reducing sexual activity is the key to preventing cystitis, and paying attention to personal hygiene should not be ignored. Women should pay attention to hygiene issues and take note of some matters before and after sexual intercourse to avoid the occurrence of diseases. For our health, we need to pay attention to every little detail in life. We cannot ignore it, so we must strengthen our understanding of this aspect and do a good job of daily care.
