Patient's question:
My younger sister hasn't been feeling well down there for a while. When she had a thorough check-up at the hospital, the doctor said it was a urinary tract infection. The doctor advised her to pay attention to her personal hygiene and prevent bacteria from entering. After prescribing some medication, she went home. On the way home, she forgot to ask the doctor about dietary restrictions. Could you please tell me if there are any dietary restrictions for a urinary tract infection?Doctor's answer:
The most fundamental cause of urinary tract infections is a series of clinical diagnostic symptoms caused by bacterial infections after a decline in human immunity. The most common type is Gram-negative bacterial infection, which leads to symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, dysuria, and hematuria. If diagnosed, timely anti-inflammatory treatment is necessary. In terms of diet, drink plenty of water and maintain a daily water intake of over 2000ml. Avoid spicy foods like chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns.
