The most well-known effect of probiotics is to balance the intestinal microecology and improve overall immunity, which has been confirmed by many medical studies. Urbanites often regard gastrointestinal problems as minor ailments, but ignoring them will lead to more health troubles, such as a common urban disease-Irritable Bowel Syndrome, also known as "sensitive bowel". This disease is a long-term chronic disease, among which young female patients are more common. Without any damage or lesion in the intestinal tract of the patient, dysfunction such as peristalsis or allergies occurs; the patient's bowel movements not only increase, but also the stool becomes hard or loose, and the discomfort is usually relieved after the patient goes to the toilet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A patient came to see a doctor because he was troubled by red pain when urinating. After careful questioning, it turned out that she had been suffering from sensitive bowels. Whenever she had a meal or was emotionally stressed, she would have stomach pain and diarrhea, and needed to go to the toilet frequently. Due to the frequent passing of loose stools, her urethra was infected by E. coli bacteria in the stools, which in turn induced urethritis, so she felt red pain and burning when urinating. If the condition is not resolved, the bacteria in the urethra may have the opportunity to lead upwards to the connected bladder, causing cystitis. It should be noted that if the urinary system often has inflammation, it may seriously affect kidney function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to her condition, in addition to taking antibiotics, diarrhea caused by irritable bowel syndrome should also be treated to minimize the chance of urethritis recurrence. Patients can consider taking probiotics to balance the microecology of the intestinal tract and urinary tract, which can help relieve gastrointestinal discomfort and symptoms of urethritis. However, irritable bowel is difficult to cure completely, and the treatment is mainly aimed at controlling and relieving the symptoms and reducing the inconvenience caused by the symptoms. Long-term emotional stress can easily lead to more serious diarrhea symptoms, so learning to relax is also very important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In addition, many women often suffer from recurrence of vaginitis and urethritis. It is recommended to take probiotic supplements containing Lactobacillus reuteri RC-14 and Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1 as needed. Studies have shown that they can increase the "good bacteria" in the urinary tract and vagina, which can help prevent and improve gynecological inflammation such as urethritis. However, if the symptoms recur frequently, or you may suffer from interstitial cystitis with similar symptoms, you should consult a doctor for further diagnosis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
