Cystitis quite often comes to us at the least appropriate time and place. With this disease, you should see a doctor, because with wrong, inappropriate treatment, you can develop serious kidney diseases. However, when symptoms strike us, for example, on a Saturday evening or during the winter break, away from home, we have to deal with it somehow.

How to recognize cystitis?

Since this condition has affected many generations of people – especially women – they have developed several home remedies for pain, burning, itching and similar symptoms of cystitis. And these are impossible to confuse with anything else once you’ve been tortured like this once

  1. pulling pain at the bottom of the abdomen – seems to be concentrated directly behind the pubic bone,
  2. discomfort in the urethra during and after urination,
  3. slight burning sensation in the urethra, with the development of the disease turning into severe pain,
  4. the need to go to the toilet frequently, with mediocre results,
  5. constant feeling of incomplete emptying of the urinary bladder,
  6. sometimes, in acute conditions, slight bleeding occurs with urine

In the prevention of bladder diseases, it is recommended to eat products with cranberry, because this fruit has a positive effect on the work of the urinary system and prevents infections. We recommend, among others Organic cranberry juice. In turn, you can buy a cranberry dietary supplement at a bargain price on Medonet Market.

Most of us know that cranberries have anti-inflammatory properties, but here are some other home remedies to help you recover:

Clean materials and cystitis

When the first symptoms of cystitis appear, change your underwear, towels and bedding immediately. It turns out that since women began to care more about intimate hygiene, they suffer from cystitis more often. Paradox? No – it is just that during washing and drying, body secretions remain on the materials, in which bacteria are and develop – the cause of the disease. Bed linen, underwear and towels must be washed at a temperature above 60 degrees Celsius, because only in this temperature the bacteria die.

Do you want to check if you have a genitourinary infection? You can perform a mail-order test for Ureaplasma infection or undertake more extensive diagnostics as part of the urogenital shipping package. We also recommend the Home test for urinary tract infections for children and adults. You can buy all these studies on Medonet Market.

Help from a partner with cystitis

You should make sure that your sexual partner takes care of your underwear in the same way – men have a longer urethra and thus fall ill less often, but may contribute to infecting women. Hygiene is very important after each urination and before sex and before sharing a bed. Hygiene after an intimate meeting and removing, for example, the remains of intimate gels, is the basis of prophylaxis in the fight against cystitis.

If you suspect you have cystitis, schedule an online urologist consultation to get the support you need and get rid of the infection quickly.

Warm underwear for cystitis

Cooling the bladder is conducive to colds and the development of inflammation. It is a very sensitive part of the body and even sitting in a car seat that is cold at night can lead to a cold. This condition favors bacteria, which in women have a short and wide path to cover – to the bladder, where they can quickly settle in, multiply and … tease! It is worth to apologize with fustian panties and use jackets, coats at least half the thigh length.

Chamomile for cystitis

Warming up the diseased area of ​​the body is very helpful and you can use very warm but not hot water with chamomile infusion (about 1 liter) for this purpose. Chamomile has anti-inflammatory and bactericidal properties. When we do not have a bathtub, you can sit for a quarter of an hour in a basin filled with very warm water mixed with herbal infusion. Drinking chamomile tea 3 times a day is helpful in relieving systemic inflammation.

An infusion of Wild Strawberry Leaves will also be helpful in cystitis. You can buy tea at Medonet Market.

Needles for cystitis

A bath with pine needles will also be helpful. To prepare it, you need to pour boiling water over a kilogram of pine needles so that the water covers the needles. The infusion does not need to be strained, but after a dozen or so minutes, pour everything into the bathtub. After brewing, the needles are soft and will not hurt our delicate body parts. Pine infusions and oils disinfect, warm up and stimulate the body’s immunity. The vitamin C contained in them improves immunity and helps in the fight against colds, and the tannins have anti-inflammatory properties.
