[MNDEE]

On a serious note..kunywa PELOX. Itakutosha.
Ila......magonjwa haya aghalabu huwapata wanaume. Au una kale ka tabia ka kutembelea maungo yasiyotamkika hadharani ya maumbile ya nyuma ya mwanadamu......
Just in case ukapitiliza.....mpe salaam kambarage. Muhabarishe aje amchukue Ghadafi maana anapewa kipondo left right and centre

pole sana kaka, and plz hizi dawa ulizotaja hapa chini hazina uhusiano na uti nurse amekudanganya ili apate hela, kwani ducotexin bei yake ni 13000/=, kwani diclofenac ni dawa ya kutuliza maumivu tu na ducotexin ni dawa ya kutibu malaria, next the best cheap drug kwa kutibu uti ni ciprofoxacin 500 mg kutwa mara 2 kwa siku 10, which coast si zaidi ya 3000/=, then hakikisha unamtibu na partner wako kama yupo, kwa sababu unaambukiza, zingatia kunywa maji kwa wingi, na kwa kutuliza maumivu waweza tumia paracetamol inatosha mkubwa,

Eti hz dawa zitanisaidia:
Duocotecxine 3*3*3
Diclofenac 1*3*7. Hayo ni maelezo ya nesi wa duka la dawa.
Msaada: vp nkinywa na hzo Pelox itakuwaje?

DuoCotexcine nia dawa mseto ya malaria....sio UTI. UTI ni bacterial infection...unahitaji antibiotics. Antibitics nzuri kwa ajili ya UTI ni jamii au familia ya Quinolones ambazo kama walivyotaja wenzangu ni Pelox (Pefloxacin) au Ciprobid (Ciprofloxacin). Au unaweza tumia dawa za familia ya Penicillini mfano AmoxyClav (Amoxycillin + Clavulanic acid), au Augmentin.

Sikushauri utumie Nitrofurantoin, ni dawa ya zamani na ina side effects nyingi. Kunywa maji mengi kama ulivyoshauriwa. Dalili zisipoisha tafadhali wahi kwa daktari, Bugando wako cheap zaidi lakini wana huduma nzuri zaidi za kitabibu!

Mkuu, watu watakupa dawa walizo tumia wenyewe na zikawasaidia ila bila kupima huwezi kujua ni dawa gani hasa. Kuna mtu kasema gentamicyne injection, kweli inatibu almost UTI zote ila it is a last solution. Ni bora kuanza na dawa za kawaida kabisa.
Hiyo DUOCOTEXINE ni wide range antibiotic pia, lazima itasaidia (vidonge). na Diclofenac ni dawa ya maumivu, itasaidia pia. Kunywa na maji mengi (kama liter 1 ao 2 kwa siku ni sawa, kama unakunywa zaidi punguza chumvi kwa chakula usilete mengine).

Hapo kwenye nyekundu Roulette sio kweli, hiyo dawa sio broad spectrum antibiotic....Duocotecxin (Holley Pharm) ni dawa mseto ya malaria (Artemisinin based Combination Therapy (ACT)) inayojumuisha Dihydroartesinin na Piperaquin.

Nadhani walipompa DuoCotecxin na Diclofenac walitibu kama Malaria, sijui kama kilifanyika kipimo cha malaria (BS/RDT) na kuwafanya wampe dawa hizo au la, lakini hazitibu UTI, bali malaria.

Hellow !!

Hivi ni sahihi kwamba U.T.I ni miongoni mwa magonjwa ya zinaa??

Kama ni sahihi naomba mnieleweshe kivipi??

Kwa mtazamo wangu nilidhani STD's ni magonjwa yanayoenea kwa njia ya kujamiiana tu.

UTI (urinary tract infection) kimsingi siyo ugonjwa wa zinaa, japo hata magonjwa ya zinaa yanaweza kusababisha UTI. Ni sawa na kifua kikuu siyo ukimwi, lakini ukishapata ukimwi uwezekano wa kuugua kifua kifua kikuu ni mkubwa.

Thanx mkuu,umenifungua macho kwa namna moja,hebu nisaidie ni njia zipi hasa zinazosambaza/sababisha ugonjwa huu (if its not the case of sexually transmitted)

 

[LUCHELELE]

Mi nafikiri sababu inaeza kua kuvaa nguo za ndani yaani chupi ikiwa haijakauka vizuri.hens ule unyevu unasababisha u.t.i. Also kutumia vyoo ambavyo si safi.pia kutumia maji ambayo si safi kuogea.

 

[gkalunde]

Uti inawapata zaidi wanawake kutokana namaumbile yao ufupi wa njia ya kutolea mkojo nje [urethra] hivyo kufanya wadudu wanaosababisha uti kama e.coli kuingia kwa urahisi, njia ya uke,haja kubwa kuwakaribu urethra hivyo wadudu kuhama kwa urahisi maeneo hayo na kuingia kwenye mfumo wa njia ya mkojo ikichangiwa na kuvaa ped kwa muda mrefu.

 

[Kiroroma]

A urinary tract infection, or UTI, is an infection that can happen anywhere along the urinary tract. Urinary tract infections have different names, depending on what part of the urinary tract is infected.

Bladder -- an infection in the bladder is also called cystitis or a bladder infection
Kidneys -- an infection of one or both kidneys is called pyelonephritis or a kidney infection
Ureters -- the tubes that take urine from each kidney to the bladder are only rarely the site of infection
Urethra -- an infection of the tube that empties urine from the bladder to the outside is called urethritis



Causes

Urinary tract infections are caused by germs, usually bacteria that enter the urethra and then the bladder. This can lead to infection, most commonly in the bladder itself, which can spread to the kidneys.

Most of the time, your body can get rid of these bacteria. However, certain conditions increase the risk of having UTIs.

Women tend to get them more often because their urethra is shorter and closer to the anus than in men. Because of this, women are more likely to get an infection after sexual activity or when using a diaphragm for birth control. Menopause also increases the risk of a UTI.

The following also increase your chances of developing a UTI:

Diabetes
Advanced age (especially people in nursing homes)
Problems emptying your bladder completely (urinary retention)
A tube called a urinary catheter inserted into your urinary tract
Bowel incontinence
Enlarged prostate, narrowed urethra, or anything that blocks the flow of urine
Kidney stones
Staying still (immobile) for a long period of time (for example, while you are recovering from a hip fracture)
Pregnancy
Surgery or other procedure involving the urinary tract

Symptoms

The symptoms of a bladder infection include:

Cloudy or bloody urine, which may have a foul or strong odor
Low fever (not everyone will have a fever)
Pain or burning with urination
Pressure or cramping in the lower abdomen (usually middle) or back
Strong need to urinate often, even right after the bladder has been emptied

If the infection spreads to your kidneys, symptoms may include:

Chills and shaking or night sweats
Fatigue and a general ill feeling
Fever above 101 degrees Fahrenheit
Flank (side), back, or groin pain
Flushed, warm, or reddened skin
Mental changes or confusion (in the elderly, these symptoms often are the only signs of a UTI)
Nausea and vomiting
Severe abdominal pain (sometimes)

Exams and Tests

A urine sample is usually collected to perform the following tests:

Urinalysis is done to look for white blood cells, red blood cells, bacteria, and to test for certain chemicals, such as nitrites in the urine. Most of the time, your doctor or nurse can diagnose an infection using a urinalysis.
Urine culture - clean catch may be done to identify the bacteria in the urine to make sure the correct antibiotic is being used for treatment.

CBC and a blood culture may be done.

The following tests may be done to help rule out problems in your urinary system that might lead to infection or make a UTI harder to treat:

CT scan of the abdomen
Intravenous pyelogram (IVP)
Kidney scan
Kidney ultrasound
Voiding cystourethrogram

Treatment

Your doctor must first decide whether you have a mild or simple bladder or kidney infection, or whether your infection is more serious.

MILD BLADDER AND KIDNEY INFECTIONS

Antibiotics taken by mouth are usually recommended because there is a risk that the infection can spread to the kidneys.

For a simple bladder infection, you will take antibiotics for 3 days (women) or 7 - 14 days (men). For a bladder infection with complications such as pregnancy or diabetes, OR a mild kidney infection, you will usually take antibiotics for 7 - 14 days.
It is important that you finish all the antibiotics, even if you feel better. If you do not finish all your antibiotics, the infection could return and may be harder to treat.

Commonly used antibiotics include trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, amoxicillin, Augmentin, doxycycline, and fluoroquinolones. Your doctor will also want to know whether you could be pregnant.

Your doctor may also recommend drugs to relieve the burning pain and urgent need to urinate. Phenazopyridine hydrochloride (Pyridium) is the most common of this type of drug. You will still need to take antibiotics.

Everyone with a bladder or kidney infection should drink plenty of fluids.

Some women have repeat or recurrent bladder infections. Your doctor may suggest several different ways of treating these.

Taking a single dose of an antibiotic after sexual contact may prevent these infections, which occur after sexual activity.
Having a 3-day course of antibiotics at home to use for infections diagnosed based on your symptoms may work for some women.
Some women may also try taking a single, daily dose of an antibiotic to prevent infections.

MORE SEVERE KIDNEY INFECTIONS

If you are very sick and cannot take medicines by mouth or drink enough fluids, you may be admitted to the hospital. You may also be admitted to the hospital if you:

Are elderly
Have kidney stones or changes in the anatomy of your urinary tract
Have recently had urinary tract surgery
Have cancer, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, or other medical problems
Are pregnant and have a fever or are otherwise ill

At the hospital, you will receive fluids and antibiotics through a vein.

Some people have urinary tract infections that keep coming back or that do not go away with treatment. Such infections are called chronic UTIs. If you have a chronic UTI, you may need antibiotics for many months, or stronger antibiotics may be prescribed.
