"Anyang-anyangan, Urinary Tract Infection Symptoms Usually Appear During Traveling Home"

Dream - Some Dream friends have gone home to enjoy the Eid moment in their hometown. Going home itself takes quite a long time, especially if you have to face traffic jams. This not only makes the body feel tired but also makes it difficult to urinate. As a result, many people intentionally minimize drinking water to avoid frequent trips to the toilet. Unfortunately, this habit can lead to urinary tract infections (UTIs) or anyang-anyangan.

Anyang-anyangan, Signs of Urinary Tract Infection Usually Occur During Mudik Journey

ISK itself is more often experienced by women with various symptoms, such as a strong urge to urinate repeatedly, a burning sensation when urinating, frequent urination with only a small amount coming out, a change in urine color to cloudy or smelly, as well as pain in the middle of the pelvis or the V bone.

Regardless of the symptoms and discomfort experienced during a urinary tract infection (UTI), there are many myths circulating about this condition. Usually, these myths revolve around the causes of UTIs. What are the myths and the facts? Check out the explanation from Dermatologist, Arthur Simon, below.

1. ISK Arises Due to Mixing Hot and Cold Water

"Drinking hot, warm, or cold water, or mixing them together does not cause urinary tract infection (UTI). Besides, when hot and cold water are mixed, it becomes normal temperature water," said Arthur. Therefore, water temperature is not related to the occurrence of UTI."

2. No Need to Consult a Doctor

Actually, UTIs can subside on their own, but it doesn't mean that Sahabat Dream can let it last too long. UTIs that are not resolved can worsen kidney conditions and cause serious and permanent damage.

2. ISK Bisa Disebabkan Oleh Aktivitas Seksual

2. UTI Can Be Caused by Sexual Activity

2. ISK Bisa Disebabkan Oleh Aktivitas Seksual 2. UTI Can Be Caused by Sexual Activity

This is not a myth because sexual intercourse can be a major trigger for urinary tract infections (UTIs). It is important to maintain hygiene in the intimate area after sexual intercourse.

"The location of the urethra (urinary tract opening) in women is very close to the vagina, bacteria can easily transfer to the urethra during sexual intercourse. Bacteria that are harmless when in the vagina, can become problematic when they reach the urinary tract."

4. UTIs Only Occur in Women Although women are more susceptible to UTIs, men can also experience them. 5. UTIs Occur Due to Poor Hygiene "Having a UTI does not mean you are dirty. Because the distance between the vagina and urethra is very close in women, make sure to dry the vagina from front to back." This method can reduce the risk of UTIs, especially after sexual activity or urination.

"Don't forget to drink enough water and avoid the habit of delaying urination, especially after sexual activities. Use loose and non-synthetic underwear. In infants and toddlers, stop the habit of sprinkling powder on the genital area and change diapers regularly to prevent UTI."
