The website “Abonet D” reported that cystitis often occurs after swimming as a result of wearing wet swimwear, as moisture cools the body and the blood vessels contract in the mucous membranes and the blood flow to the urinary tract deteriorates, which facilitates the entry of germs.

The site, which is the official portal of German pharmacists, explained that the symptoms of bladder infection are an urgent desire to urinate, a feeling of pain and burning during urination, fever and nausea.

You should consult a doctor if you feel back pain in the kidney area, blood in the urine, or cramps in the lower abdomen.

Ways for treatment

In cases of minor bladder infections, anti -inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen help relieve pain. Patients should also drink a lot of fluids to expel bacteria.

In addition to water, drugs containing cranberry can prevent bacteria from sticking to the mucosa membrane.

Prevention measures

To prevent cystitis in the pool, the following measures should be taken:

  • Avoid sitting on cold or moist surfaces.
  • Wear well -ventilated cotton underwear.
  • Dry yourself immediately after swimming and wear dry clothes.
