How do men get urinary tract infections?

Among patients with urinary tract infection, men also account for a large proportion. Perhaps many patients think that they are very careful about hygiene in their daily lives, and do not know what causes the disease. In order to solve this question for the majority of patients, today the editor will talk about all the possible inducing factors that have been collected. You can read the following article in detail for understanding.

1. High temperature and moist skin. In the hot summer, you will sweat profusely as soon as you do a little activity. In order to cope with the large amount of water loss from the sweat glands, the kidneys must concentrate urine to preserve water, so the urine becomes thicker and the urine volume decreases. In addition, high temperature and moist skin also makes it easy for bacteria to grow on the skin, which can easily cause urinary tract diseases and is a seasonal cause of urinary tract infections.

2. Improper selection of treatment drugs. Gonorrhea is resistant to drugs, reinfection, sexual partners are not treated; patients do not take drugs according to doctor's instructions, drinking and spicy food can affect the efficacy of treatment, only drugs against one pathogen are given, and mixed infections are ignored, for example, combined with Chlamydia trachomatis or mycoplasma infection and not treated. These are common problems that cause urinary tract infections to be difficult to cure.

3. Urinary tract infection caused by trichomonas. Certain bacterial infections lead to non-specific urethritis; it can cause prostatitis due to decreased local resistance; inflammatory damage to the urethral mucosa, such as edema and hyperplasia, has not yet recovered, or local nerves are stretched, which can cause symptoms of urinary tract infection.

4. Drinking too little water. Drink enough water, maintain more than 3000cc of water per day, and empty the bladder at least once every 3 to 4 hours; avoid irritating foods, alcohol or coffee; consume more fruits containing vitamin C, such as orange, lemon, and plum juice to keep urine acidic; at the same time, it is recommended to take a shower.

The factors mentioned in the article are the direct causes of urinary tract infection in men, so the editor reminds everyone to take preventive measures accordingly. For patients who have been diagnosed, don't worry too much about your condition. You can suppress the worsening of the infection through medication and other treatments.
