How Do Cystitis Patients Drink Water Correctly?

Hot summer has come, people sweat more and more. For patients with cystitis, drinking water has become a vital health class. However, many patients are not on the right way to drink water.

 

 

Cystitis is an inflammation caused primarily by a bacterial infection. It is a common urinary tract infection in modern society. People with cystitis often have symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and pain. Therefore, patients need treatment. Antibiotics are first choice for some people, but for chronic cystitis, herbal medicine, such as Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill can be a better option, especillally when symptoms recur after antibitic treatments. 

 

Besides, patients need to follow the doctor's advice to control the amount of water. Because drinking more water and urinating more is very beneficial to the recovery of the disease.

 

For cystitis patients, drinking more water has the following benefits:

 

1. Drink more water to get rid of toxins: in hot summer, enough water every day can supplement the loss of water in the body. It can also have a detoxification effect, reducing the probability of cystitis caused by bacterial infection. Doctors suggest that you can drink about two liters of water a day. You can drink enough water to accelerate your metabolism.

 

2. Drink more water is good for the bladder, but the amount of water needs to be moderate: If you drink too little water and your urine concentration is too high, you will suffer bladder pain. Drinking too much water can cause the bladder to swell, which increases the surface of the bladder. It raises the chances of all kinds of chemicals that trigger cancers.

 

Therefore, drinking water can make the urine a little more abundant. It is suitable for preventing bladder cancer. In addition, if you hold your urine for a long time, you can hugely increase the risk of bladder cancer.

 

So how to drink water scientifically? There are several points:

 

1. Do not drink too much water in the morning. When you wake up in the morning, drinking a large glass of warm water on an empty stomach is an excellent habit. I'm sure you know that. However, for patients with cystitis, the first glass of water in the morning should not exceed 150-200ml.

 

2. Avoid drinking water in the hour before going to the bed. Because drinking water before bed will increase the possibility of getting up to go to the toilet when you sleep. After going to the bathroom, you will be unable to fall asleep, repeatedly thinking about the frequency of urination and feeling that the bladder has the desire to urinate. 

 

It will cause some terrible influences, including insomnia, sleep disorders, anxiety, and other adverse emotions. It can also aggravate the symptoms of frequent urination, urination pain, urinary tract discomfort.

 

3. Develop the habit of drinking warm water with multiple sips. Gulping water quickly will dilute the blood in a short period, which increases the burden on the heart and can produce urine quickly. However, As the resilience of cystitis bladder tissue drops, it can not adapt to the rapid production of urine. 

 

Sipping water can use a biofeedback mechanism to communicate the thirst center, letting the body's cells know that water is coming into the body to be fully absorbed. (You had better drink 50-100 ml each time, two times per hour). Besides, compared with cold water, warm water is milder to the body and does not stimulate the body, which helps the body to absorb.
