Female feels uncomfortable after urinating

In life, some women experience discomfort after urinating, such as urethral itching, frequent urination, painful urination, and incomplete urination. Most of these situations are caused by urinary tract infection. Female friends should pay attention to it to prevent the condition from getting worse. So how do women know if they have a urinary tract infection? In order to help you answer this question, a detailed introduction will be given below.

Symptoms of Urinary Tract Infection in Women

1. Abnormal urine

This symptom is generally difficult to distinguish with the naked eye. Common symptoms include bacteriuria, pyuria, hematuria and pneumaturia, which are more obvious after examination.

2. Abnormal urination

Frequent urination, urgency, pain and even urinary incontinence may occur. It is common in chronic renal failure caused by chronic pyelonephritis. In the early stage, there may be polyuria, and in the later stage, there may be oliguria or anuria.

3. Lower back pain

When a woman suffers from a urinary tract infection, the urethra will be stimulated and tension will occur to varying degrees, causing pain in the lower back.

4. Physical discomfort

Fever or tremors all over the body and frequent headaches are actually symptoms of urinary tract infection, not physical discomfort caused by lack of rest and daily excessive fatigue.

Precautions for urinary tract infection in women

During defecation, be careful not to splash the water in the toilet onto your lower body.

4. If you have a urinary tract infection, you should pay more attention to your daily water intake. Infected patients may have frequent urination or other conditions. Infected patients have more toxins and bacteria. Drinking water can appropriately alleviate this situation. It is more reasonable to choose soft water. Carbonated drinks cannot be drunk.

Especially during the acute infection period, because the inflammation will be accompanied by fever, it is generally better to get out of bed and move around after the temperature returns to normal. If you engage in strenuous activities or high-intensity labor during the infection period, your body's immunity will be lower, making it more likely to be reinfected.

What are the causes of urinary tract infection?

1. High temperature and moist skin

It is very hot in summer and you will sweat profusely as soon as you do the slightest activity. To cope with the large amount of water lost from the sweat glands, the kidneys must concentrate the urine to conserve water, so the urine becomes more concentrated and the amount of urine becomes less. In addition, hot and humid skin also makes it easy for bacteria to grow on the skin, which can easily lead to urinary tract diseases and is a seasonal cause of urinary tract infections.

2. Improper selection of therapeutic drugs

Gonorrhea is resistant to it; reinfection, sexual partners are not treated; patients do not take medication as prescribed, drinking alcohol and spicy food can affect the efficacy; only giving drugs against one pathogen and ignoring mixed infections, for example, combined infection with Chlamydia trachomatis or Mycoplasma and not receiving treatment, these are all common problems that cause urinary tract infections to be difficult to cure.

3. Urinary tract infection caused by Trichomonas

Certain bacterial infections lead to nonspecific urethritis; prostatitis may occur due to decreased local resistance; inflammatory damage to the urethral mucosa, such as edema and hyperplasia, has not yet recovered, or local nerves are stretched, which may cause symptoms of urinary tract infection.

4. Drinking too little water

Drink plenty of water, maintaining more than 3000cc of water per day; empty the bladder at least once every 3 to 4 hours; avoid irritating foods, drinking alcohol or coffee; consume more fruits containing vitamin C, such as orange, lemon, and plum juice to keep urine acidic; it is also recommended to take a shower.
