Patients with cystitis cannot heal on their own without formal treatment; instead, their symptoms will gradually worsen. The main symptoms of cystitis include frequent urination, urgency, painful urination, and discomfort or pain in the lower abdomen or perineum. After a confirmed diagnosis of cystitis, it is necessary to seek timely treatment at the local hospital's urology department. Treatment can be administered through intravenous antibiotics or by taking oral antibiotics. Additionally, patients should increase their water intake and urinate frequently, as these measures can effectively treat cystitis. Generally, patients can recover within about a week.

What should I do about cystitis?

After discovering cystitis, do not be too stressed mentally, actively treat it, drink more water, and orally take sodium bicarbonate to alkalinize the urine. This can reduce irritation to the urinary tract. Additionally, medicines like atropine and diazepam can be used, and appropriate heat application to the bladder area, as well as hot water sitz baths, can alleviate bladder spasms. Antibiotics such as cephalosporins and quinolones can be appropriately used. For simple cystitis, you can choose antibiotics that are more sensitive, using a three-day treatment method, which is similar to a seven-day course, with fewer side effects and lower costs. (Please use medications under the guidance of a doctor.)
