@wellness.coach73: HOW TO REDUCE THE RISK OF UTI — BEFORE & AFTER INFECTION 💧 BEFORE A UTI • Drink enough water and stay hydrated. • Don’t regularly hold your urine—go when you feel the urge. • Take time to empty your bladder completely. • Keep good personal hygiene and wipe front to back. • Urinate after sexual activity. • Avoid unnecessary douching, sprays and powders around the genital area. 🩺 IF YOU ALREADY HAVE UTI SYMPTOMS • Don’t rely on home remedies alone. • Get assessed by a healthcare professional when symptoms appear. • If antibiotics are prescribed, take them exactly as directed—don’t share or save leftover antibiotics. • Continue drinking appropriate amounts of water unless a healthcare professional has told you to restrict fluids. ⚠️ IMPORTANT: Fever, chills, vomiting, blood in urine, or pain in the back/side can be signs of a more serious infection and need prompt medical attention. 👉 Don’t ignore recurring symptoms. Proper assessment can help identify the cause.#foryou #foryoupage #goviral #viral #infection
