Choose The Right UTI Treatment At St. John’s Urology
Your urologist at St John’s Urology will provide you with the most effective UTI treatment, as well as an examination to identify the cause of your infection and suggest preventative measures to keep it from happening again. But when you are suffering from UTI symptoms like increased frequency of urination, pain while urinating, cloudy or foul-smelling urine, fatigue, and fever, it can be challenging to figure out which UTI treatment is best for you.
Know Your Options:
Generally speaking, there are two types of treatments available for women suffering from urinary tract infections: antibiotics and medication that treats bladder spasms. Antibiotics are a great option for most patients but have their limitations when it comes to certain strains of bacteria, which is why antispasmodics can be a great alternative for patients who don’t respond well to traditional antibiotic treatment plans. Patients with chronic or recurring infections may also be better suited to antispasmodics due to their ability to help strengthen muscle tissue and prevent future infections by eliminating bladder spasms.

Know The Common Causes Of Urinary Tract Infections:
Certain risk factors make it more likely for a woman to develop a urinary tract infection (UTI). For instance, women who experience vaginal childbirth are much more likely to develop infections than those who give birth by cesarean section. If you’re pregnant or have recently had sex, you may be particularly susceptible; sexually transmitted infections can cause UTIs in both men and women. In addition, certain types of intercourse may increase your risk of developing an infection—for example, any type that occurs during menstruation may put you at increased risk for contracting an STD and creating a UTI in response. Diaphragms, IUDs, intrauterine devices and spermicides may also increase your risk of developing a UTI as they alter your pH levels.

Know What To Expect During The Intravenous Antibiotics Process:
