The first, and most notably, pain in urination is felt when urinating.
Second, the bladder is irritated, causing frequent or urinary urgency. The average person urinates 8 times a day, and if it exceeds this, cystitis may be suspected.
Third, suprapubic pain is felt in the lower abdomen.
Fourth, the condition of urine becomes abnormal, such as a foul odor that is not usually produced in the urine, blood in the urine, or cloudiness of the urine.
For those who have frequent recurrence of cystitis, it is very important not only to treat it, but also to prevent it. First of all, it is recommended to drink plenty of water so that you can excrete at least 2 liters of urine.
In addition, you should wipe properly after urinating. In particular, you should avoid wiping from the back to the front, as the bacteria that cause perianal cystitis can get into the urethra.
While undergoing treatment for cystitis, it is recommended to refrain from sexual activity as much as possible and not to take spermicidal contraceptives. Spermicidal pills kill not only sperm but also live bacteria, creating favorable conditions for germs.
One of the best foods for cystitis is cranberries. The fructose and anthocyanidins* in cranberry juice are said to prevent urinary tract infections from attaching to the bladder, preventing cystitis.
*Anthocyanidins: common plant pigments.
Second, vitamin C is recommended. Vitamin C acidifies urine, which makes it difficult for germs to stick to it in an acidified environment.
Probiotics called lactic acid bacteria also help with cystitis. The bladder and female genitals are inhabited by all kinds of live bacteria, and if they are insufficient, germs will stick to them easily. Lactic acid bacteria are known for their stool health, but they are also effective in preventing cystitis.
