Patient's question:
It's February now, and it's always been drizzling in our southern region. It hasn't been sunny for several days, so the clothes I washed can't dry. Maybe because of this reason, my underwear hasn't been exposed to the sun or disinfected, leading to bacterial growth. I wore it, and now I have a peripartum urinary tract infection. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Based on the urinary and reproductive system infection you described, you can choose to take effective antibacterial and anti-inflammatory medications, as well as heat-clearing and detoxifying drugs, for regular and systematic treatment according to the prescribed course. It is important to maintain cleanliness and hygiene of the external genitalia, keeping them comfortable and dry, changing underwear frequently, paying attention to dietary regularity and hygiene, avoiding extremely cold, spicy, and irritating foods, taking care to prevent abdominal colds and avoid getting chilled, drinking plenty of warm water, urinating frequently, and maintaining a positive and optimistic mindset.
