Sterile Cystitis

Cystitis is an inflammation of the bladder. It may affect women and men, but is much more common in women. Common symptoms include severe pain on urination and an urgent and frequent urination, often with little or no urine being passed. Cystitis usually begins when bacteria enter the urinary tract through the urethra, the tube through which urine leaves your body. There are several types of cystitis such as bacterial cystitis, interstitial cystitis is considered more of an injury to the bladder and rarely involves the presence of an infection Esinophilic cystitis is a rare form of cystitis that is diagnosed by biopsy, radiation cystitis and hemorrhagic cystitis. Cystitis is more common in pregnant women, working women and women after menopause, but it can occur at any age.

Cystitis is caused by skin bacteria that travel close to the urethra and grow in your bladder, causing infection and inflammation. Cystitis occurs when the normally sterile lower urinary tract (urethra and bladder) is infected by bacteria and becomes irritated and inflamed. Women get cystitis more than men in part because the urethra is shorter and opens near the anus. Antibiotics are used to control bacterial infection. Pyridinium can be used to reduce the burning and urgency associated with cystitis. Avoid perfumed soaps, deodorants, bubble baths, etc. There is no cure for IC / PBS, but treatments can help most people feel better. Refraining from urinating for long periods of time may allow bacteria to multiply.

Drinking cranberry juice may help prevent cystitis back, and some people use to relieve symptoms of an attack. Avoid potential irritants such as perfumed bath oils and deodorants. Making the urine less acidic by mixing a teaspoon of baking soda with a quart of water. Wear cotton clothing and avoid wearing tight pants, as this may create a warm and humid, airless conditions around your genitals in which bacteria can grow. Taking sodium citrate or potassium citrate in sachets or solutions may help relieve some symptoms. Do not drink alcohol, while the attack lasts. Use a lubricant to reduce friction.
