Quickly relieve cystitis symptoms: basic methods

See a doctor if you have cystitis

Signs of an inflammatory process in the bladder appear clearly and cause a lot of inconvenience to the patient.

The symptoms of the disease are well known to most residents, because according to statistics, up to 30,000,000 cases of patients with cystitis are diagnosed annually.Although men are also susceptible to the disease, the main category is women.This is due not only to their anatomical features, but also to their passion for fashion trends (short skirts and impractical but beautiful underwear).

Many people prefer not to wait to see a doctor, but to quickly cure cystitis at home.However, it should be understood that self-therapy is usually aimed only at alleviating symptoms, and not at eliminating the causes of the disease.However, this approach is justified when there are very serious inconveniences and it is objectively impossible to get to the hospital.

How to quickly relieve cystitis symptoms with heating

Heat is the main “helper” in getting rid of the signs of the inflammatory process.It affects blood vessels, dilating them and thereby relieving pain.For cystitis, the following procedures are indicated:

  1. Apply a warm heating pad to your lower abdomen and groin.You can also use bags filled with hot sand or salt.Some people use a regular plastic bottle filled with heated water (the main requirement is that the container material be dark in color).
  2. Take a hot shower.The duration of such “therapy” is 15-20 minutes.If opinions differ on bathing, taking a shower when the bladder is inflamed is not only possible, but even useful.
  3. “Bathing” feet.It takes 15-25 minutes to steam your feet.Various decoctions of herbs (from chamomile, St. John's wort, etc.), heated milk and plain water can be used as a “healing” liquid.You must ensure that your feet do not get cold.As soon as the liquid begins to cool, it is recommended to add a new portion at a higher temperature.
  4. Sitting on a hot brick.The procedure itself is simple, but it will require the construction of a special structure.You need to put several pieces of brick heated in the oven in a metal bucket, cover the edge of the container with a thick cloth and sit on it, having previously removed your underwear.You need to act carefully so as not to accidentally burn yourself.It is recommended to sit in this way for up to 20 minutes until the brick cools.

It is very important, after completing the thermal procedure, to put on woolen socks and go under the blanket.Therefore, it is better to undergo such treatment immediately before bedtime.

Heating also has contraindications, including:

  • hematuria – bleeding with urine (heat will further increase bleeding);
  • menstruation period in women;
  • severe general course of the inflammatory process, accompanied by fever, weakness and headache.

Special mention must be made to visiting the baths and saunas.Many people believe that this is how cystitis can be quickly cured.In fact, in the acute form of the disease, such visits will only worsen the patient's condition.Going to a public bath or sauna is only allowed if you suffer from chronic cystitis, and only during the remission period.
