Preventing a Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)
There are a number of ways to prevent a UTI before it begins. These include:
-
Drinking cranberry juice and water while avoiding bladder irritants such as alcohol and soda
-
Avoiding tight clothing
-
Emptying your bladder when you need to and not “holding it”
-
Avoiding irritating feminine products
-
Taking showers instead of baths
-
Regularly taking vitamin C supplements
Urinary tract infections are the second-leading cause of visits to doctor’s offices behind only the common cold. The majority of UTIs occur in women. In fact, more than a third of all women will suffer from a UTI by the age of 24.
Symptoms of a UTI include a burning or stinging feeling during urination, the feeling of having to urinate often but having little to no urine come out, fever, stomach pain or pain on one side of your back. FastMed can administer the appropriate tests and treatment for a uti if it’s determined during your visit that you have one.
