UTIs (some tips from a nurse)

celeste • spicy food and cold weather No lashes, happily in a relationship Fight me if you like mayonnaise

Y’all, these aren’t a damn joke. Be careful of bath bombs (@Lush) and bubble baths (the way to use these safely is to either rinse to your vagina with water or pee immediately after, kinda like sex) especially if you are a mommy or in the red train from hell. Wipe front to back and try to avoid really thin tp ( that’s a bummer for my household)If you feel the symptoms of UTI, first off start consuming a lot of water and find a pack of urinary pain relief pills (WARNING: this will make your pee bright orange and stain panties/toilet) and drink some cranberry juice/ take cranberry supplements (this isn’t the ultimate cure) and avoid sexual activity and masturbation. But to get the best results and stop having the annoying ‘gotta pee every 6 minutes’ or the ‘hold on I have to one more time even after I just flushed and washed my hands’ or ‘holy sh*t, why does this burn’ symptoms, head to either a Planned Parenthood (f*ck you if you say we only do abortions) or free women’s clinic or walk in clinic to get analyzed on the condition of your infection. UTIs aren’t just only for ‘sexually promiscuous’ women or moms. Don’t shame others for this, because once you experience one, you’ll beg to get rid of it. Even medical professionals, with myself included are at risk and will contract UTIs.

PS: a douching kit will actually make things worse,no matter what your mom told you.

Love you all and be aware of your feminine hygiene

EDIT: Kristin in the comments is correct, you can’t get on the real antibiotics if you use the painkillers for awhile, it can complicate the affects, also your pee would be almost entirely orange dye which isn’t the best for your toilet bowl :(
