NATURAL TREATMENT FOR UTI

OVERVIEW:-

• A urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection in any part of urinary system  kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra. Several infections involve the lower urinary tract  the bladder and the urethra.
• Women are at higher risk of developing a UTI than are men. Infection limited to  bladder can be painful and uncomfertable. 
• Bladder infections are the most common types of urinary infection.Most infection in men are the result of problems that restricts normal urine flow, such as enlarged prostate.

SYMPTOMS:-

They may include:

• A strong, persistent urge to urinate
• A burning sensation when urinating
• Passing frequent, small amounts of urine
• Urine that appears cloudy
• Urine that appears red, bright pink or cola-colored — a sign of blood in the urine
• Strong-smelling urine
• Pelvic pain, in women

CAUSES:-

• Urinary tract infections commonly occur when bacteria enter the urinary tract through the urethra and start to multiply in the bladder.
• The  common UTIs occur mainly in women and affect the bladder and urethra.

Infection of the bladder (cystitis):- This type of UTI is usually caused by Escherichia coli  a  bacteria commonly found in the gastrointestinal tract. Sexual intercourse may devlop  cystitis, but  don’t have to be sexually active to develop it. 

Infection of the urethra (urethritis):-In this type of UTI can occur when GI bacteria spread from the anus to the urethra. Because the female urethra is  very close to the vagina, sexually transmitted infections, such as herpes, gonorrhea, can devlop urethritis.

DIAGNOSIS:-

• Urine culture
• Computrized tomography
• Cystoscopy
• MRI

RISK FACTOR:-

Risk factors specific to women for UTIs include:-

Female anatomy:- A woman has a shorter urethra than a man , which shortens the distance that bacteria must travel to reach the bladder.

Sexual activity:- Sexually active women are more prone to UTIs than  women who aren’t sexually active. 

Certain types of birth control:-Birth control methods like diaphragms for birth control may be at higher risk, as well as women who use spermicidal agents.

Menopause:-After menopause, a reduction in circulating estrogen causes changes in the urinary tract that lead  infection.

COMPLICATION:-

Complications of a UTI may include:-

Recurrent infections:- Especially in women who experience two or more UTIs in a six-month period or four or more within a year.

Permanent kidney damage:- from an acute or chronic kidney infection (pyelonephritis) due to an untreated UTI.

Urethral narrowing (stricture):- in men from recurrent urethritis, previously seen with gonococcal urethritis.

Sepsis:- A life-threatening complication of an infection, especially if the infection in the kidney  it may devlop bacterial infection

PREVENTION:-

Several these steps to reduce your risk of urinary tract infections:-

Drink plenty of liquids:- Especially water. Drinking water helps dilute  urine and ensures that  urinate more frequently allowing bacteria to be removed from urinary tract before an infection can begin.

Drink cranberry juice:- Although studies are not conclusive that cranberry juice prevents UTIs, it is likely not harmful.

AYURVEDIC VIEW FOR UTI:-

• Ayurveda has correlated UTI to Mutrakrichha which is painful voiding of urine. Patient feels to micturate but passes urine with pain Mutra vaha srotas are the channel carrying urine waste which start from kidneys, the bladder is the container, the ureters are the passageways, and the end or opening is the urethra.
• It is due to an imbalance of pitta dosha. So more important is to balance pitta dosha and to strengthen the urinary tract 
• foods that are more hot, sour, or spicy, Drinking alcohol, Suppressing the urge to urinate, Habitually retaining urine in the bladder for long time, Exposure to excess heat and sunlight for long and drinking less water triggering pitta and thus leads to UTI.
