On the contrary, there is a lot you can do to prevent you from getting a bladder infection on the one hand and help the body recover from the cystitis on the other hand.

  1. First of all, it is of course important to know what the cause of a bladder infection is.

Cystitis cause

  1. The cause of a bladder infection is the E. coli bacteria that occurs in human faeces. It is even a good bacteria in the sense that it is the bacteria in your intestines that is responsible, among other things, for producing vitamin K.

  2. The cause of a bladder infection is the E. coli bacteria that occurs in human faeces. It is even a good bacteria in the sense that it is the bacteria in your intestines that is responsible for making vitamin K, among other things.

  1. However, if you come into contact with the E. coli bacteria outside your intestines, this bacteria is suddenly a lot less harmless and the bacteria can lead to inflammation such as a bladder infection.

  1. And that is exactly the weak spot in women, the combination of a very short urinary tract, from the hole from which your urine comes to the bladder is only a few centimeters and the fact that the The vagina and the anus are located directly next to each other makes the risk of infection very high.

  1. You carry the bacteria in you that can give you a bladder infection, so the pathogen is always ready for the attack if your resistance is less.

  1. Normally, the acidity in your vagina kills this bacteria. As soon as the acidity in the vagina becomes less acidic, the bacteria immediately get the chance to attack your bladder.

  1. The first tip I want to give you is that you don't immediately hit the super hygienic fashion and wash your vagina with soap every time you go to the toilet. Any kind of soap and the like will cause you to disturb the acid balance and you can only make a bladder infection bigger!

  1. You should always swipe backwards even if it is a somewhat cumbersome movement. So never swipe quickly from the back to the front after urinating, because you will then wipe exactly from your anus to your urethra, exactly what you don't want.

  2. You should always swipe back, even if it is a somewhat cumbersome movement. So never swipe quickly from the back to the front after urinating, because you then wipe exactly from your anus to your urethra, exactly what you don't want.

  1. The logic behind this is that you urinate out any bacteria instead of giving them a chance all night to crawl from the urethra to your bladder.

  1. During sex you also run an extra risk that the bacteria will come into contact with the urethra, so taking a pee after sex is a good preventive method to reduce the risk of infection.

  1. To keep the acidity of your vagina in balance as much as possible, you need to be able to air your underwear well. Because you wear tight, not properly ventilating underwear, you create the ideal living environment for fungi and bacteria. These ensure that your first line of defense is broken and the bacteria can penetrate deeper into your bladder.

  1. Keep your defenses up and wear well-ventilated underwear.

Cystitis symptoms

  1. Okay, you've done everything you can to prevent a bladder infection and yet you get a bladder infection, what are the symptoms?

  1. You can also have a bladder infection without having these symptoms, or you may have an infection of your urethra but fortunately not (yet) your bladder. But you usually notice it when you have a bladder infection!

Cystitis treatment

  1. Now you have a bladder infection and you want to get rid of it as soon as possible. What are your options? You can decide not to do anything and let your body fight the infection itself. You can also see your doctor straight away to get rid of the infection as soon as possible.

Cystitis antibiotics

  1. Your doctor will prescribe a course of antibiotics to get rid of the infection. This means that you have to take a pill every day for five to a week and have to finish the course completely, even if it makes you nauseous or gives you stomach complaints, with antibiotics you have to finish the course!

  1. This is very important because if you don't complete the course you run the risk that the prescribed antibiotics will no longer help against infections.

  1. This is because with every unfinished course, bacteria will arm themselves against those antibiotics, so all bacteria in your body can potentially become resistant. You and others can be infected with this bacteria and this bacteria cannot be treated with antibiotics, or some kind of antibiotics.

  1. An example of such a resistant bacterium is MRSA.

  1. It is also possible that the bacterium that causes your cystitis is already insensitive to a certain type of antibiotics, so you have to go back to the doctor so that he / she gives you another type. antibiotics.

Eliminate cystitis

  1. Of course you can just try to get rid of a bladder infection, in many cases your immune system will also be able to conquer the inflammation, but of course you want to get rid of that annoying cystitis as soon as possible.

  1. That is why it is important that you help your body as much as possible to get rid of that bacteria in the bladder.

  1. What you want to achieve is that the bacteria disappear from your bladder again, you can accelerate that in two ways. First, you have to keep your urine flowing so that the bacteria don't get the chance to multiply considerably, you urinate the bacteria out again and again.

  1. The longer you delay the moment to urinate, the more chance the bacteria will have to multiply in your bladder. To prevent this you have to urinate regularly, which you also promote by drinking a lot.

  1. Then when you go to urinate, although it is painful, try to empty the bladder completely. Sit on the toilet for a minute longer and completely empty your bladder until there is really no more drop.

  1. This little bit extra can ensure that even fewer bacteria remain in your bladder and the infection can be cleared up faster.

  1. In addition, you are going to make it as unattractive as possible for that bacterium, if you know that the bacterium loves sweet and hates acid, then you already have a strong remedy in your hands.]

  1. You're going to make your bladder as acidic as possible! You can achieve that in several natural ways:

  1. Cranberry increases the acidity of your urine, at least if you drink at least two large glasses of cranberry juice every day. It makes a difference that cranberry juice is healthy anyway, so apart from the taste, there are not really any disadvantages associated with two glasses of cranberry juice a day.

  1. I do have to mention that like all other fruit drinks you get a lot of sugars if you buy those ready-made juices. These fruit juices are a lot less healthy than just running a handful of cranberries through your smoothie blender yourself.

  1. The big advantage of such a smoothie mixer is that you can buy a bag of frozen cranberries in the supermarket, cheap and much healthier because you only get cranberries and not one based on cranberry compound drink that comes from the factory, that's more cranberry lemonade.

  1. In addition, cranberries contain a substance called proanthocyanidins. This substance has the property that it makes it difficult for the bacteria in your bladder to attach to the bladder wall, with the result that you can urinate the bacteria out again without a grip, ideal

  1. Apple cider vinegar is also a very acidic food, it acidifies your urine. In addition, apple cider vinegar has a very strong antibacterial effect, it is a natural antibiotic.

  1. One teaspoon in a glass of water three times a day is sufficient.

  1. Vitamin C is very important for your immune system when it is busy fighting inflammation. Your immune system needs this vitamin to do its job properly.

  1. When your immune system is running at full speed, your body also uses a lot of vitamins in that process.

  1. So you must ensure that the supply of vitamins is optimal. So a 1000 milligram vitamin C supplement is really important at times like that.

  1. Yes, I know it says on the packaging that vitamin C does not help against inflammation, but it must be under European guidelines, otherwise vitamin C supplements would fall under medicine legislation and not under the broader legislation of nutritional supplements.

  1. Vitamin C also helps to increase the acidity in your bladder.

  1. D-mannose is a type of natural antibiotic that is also found in blueberries and apples. This natural remedy actually works very ingeniously. The bacteria attaches itself to this natural sugar, and then you urinate the D-mannose together with the bacteria!

  1. The human digestive tract cannot digest D-mannose so it ends up in the urine.

  1. This may not be the most pleasant thing to do if you have cystitis, after all, urinating hurts so your feeling tells you to drink less. But the opposite is true, you have to flush the urinary tract as much as possible to get the bacteria out, and there is only one way to drink a lot of water. If you have a bladder infection, drink about two liters of water a day.

  1. The last tip is about the most commonly used teas to get rid of a bladder infection, one works because this type of tea has an acidifying effect, the other because it has an antibacterial or purifying effect, because it contains D-mannose, for example.

  1. Blueberries have a beneficial effect against cystitis that it contains a lot of antioxidants, 3 to 4 times more than green tea. These antioxidants strengthen your immune system and blueberries also help prevent the bacteria from implanting in the wall of the bladder

  1. Nettle tea has traditionally been a remedy for urinary tract ailments, but even today studies show that nettle water, or in this case tea, has strong antibacterial properties.

  1. The active ingredient in birch tea is again D-mannose, the natural sugar that the E. coli binds to so that you can urinate it out. In addition, the birch contains antibacterial properties against both gram positive and gram negative bacteria, the E. coli bacteria is one of the gram negative bacteria that are killed by the unique substances in birch tea.

  1. Rose hip is an acidic food and makes your urine more acidic, making it less attractive to the E.coli in your bladder. In addition, rose hip contains all kinds of antioxidant substances that help your immune system to combat cystitis

  1. Horsetail contains as an active substance D-mannose, the substance that ensures that the E. coli bacteria binds and you can urinate it.

  1. The active ingredient in this natural remedy is nasturtium, beneficial plant of the year 2013, and horseradish. This natural antibiotic is available in lozenges at many online drug stores.

  1. I use this natural medicine myself against sinus infections but it also helps against cystitis, I think Angocin is a really good natural all-rounder when it comes to reducing inflammation.

Finally

  1. All the natural remedies traditionally used are nowadays more and more researched and nine times out of ten scientists have indeed concluded that these trees, fruits and extracts do indeed contain beneficial substances. which often have strong antibacterial or anti-fungal properties. This is also very logical, because plants, just like humans, have to protect themselves against fungi and bacteria.

  1. These natural medicines are, as it were, the immune system of a plant or tree.

  1. So you can take advantage of resources from nature. That said, don't keep muddling around with natural remedies while you're not getting better. You feel that best yourself.

  1. With (small) children I recommend that you go to the doctor anyway because it is difficult for you to determine whether your child is seriously ill or not. Leave that to the doctor, and if you are not satisfied, visit a second doctor. That also applies to yourself, don't let that put you off!

  1. Curing with natural remedies is not an exact science so if you don't notice that it helps you will have to go to the doctor for a course of antibiotics to cure the infection and prevent pelvic inflammatory disease.

  1. Luckily many people benefit directly from natural remedies for cystitis.
