Know what is UTI?
UTI is called a urinary tract infection. This is an infection that affects any part of the urinary tract. This may include the bladder, urethra, kidney, and uterus. When bacteria enter someone's urinary tract, then he has the problem of UTI. The risk of UTI is more in women, whereas in men this risk is less.
Today we will tell you some tips to avoid UTI in the rainy season, which you must follow. You can prevent yourself from getting UTI during monsoon by maintaining proper hygiene.
1. Drink enough water
Many people reduce drinking water in monsoon. To avoid UTIs, you have to drink enough water daily. Along with this, keep consuming other liquids as well. Actually, by drinking more water, the urinary tract removes all the bacteria from the body. In this case, keep the body hydrated.
2. Avoid Acidic Foods
I agree that you feel like drinking tea and coffee more in the rainy season, but these days you should reduce the intake of acidic foods like tea, coffee, and soda. This can irritate your bladder. Due to this, the risk of UTI increases.
3. Keep Yourself Clean
After using the toilet, always wipe from front to back to ensure that bacteria from the rectum do not enter the vagina or urethra. Also, do not forget to bathe regularly and change clothes after coming in contact with dirty water.
4. Must go to urine
Some people are not able to urine in sufficient quantity due to drinking less water. Due to this, the dirt does not come out from the body. At the same time, bacteria enter the urinary tract and infection starts to arise. That's why you must pass urine every 2-3 hours.
