UTI

Care At Every Step!

The infection of urinary tract is known as UTI or urinary tract infection. The sites where infection occurs are bladder, urethra and kidney. When the lower part of urinary tract is affected, then it is called cystitis or bladder infection, when the upper part is affected, it is called pyelonephritis or kidney infection. Women are more prone to have the UTI than men. The young female population stays more at the risk of UTI. The most common form of infection is bacterial infection. The infection is recurrent in nature mostly, so proper follow up and care has to be done by the patients and doctors.

Ayurvedic Description Of UTI:

Urinary tract infections are classified under Mutravah sansthan vikaar.  In Ayurveda, factors like Vegadharan (suppression of natural urges), Uska-aahar (intake of dry food and less intake of water) and Srotorodh (obstruction of the urinary tract due to stones, foreign bodies etc. are some of the causes of Mutravah sansthan vikaar. Aggravated doshas along with vitiated Apaan vayu obstructs the urinary tract, thus leading to the various Mutravah sansthan vikaar or urinary tract infections. As per the dominance of various doshas, they are further classified in ayurvedic texts.

Causes and Risk Factors

Bacterial infection

The most common cause of infection is from E.coli bacteria. The other bacteria that cause UTI are Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Pseudomonas, Chlamydia and Mycolplasma.

Sex

The young females are more at the risk, newly married women have been seen to get UTIs during early marriage and a hence a term ‘honeymoon cystitis’ used for this. The reason women are more prone to have UTIs than men because in females, the urethra is much shorter and closer to the anus. During the menopause period, the risk of UTI is high due to the low levels of estrogen hormone.

Prostate gland

In males, infection of prostate or chronic prostatitis leads to recurrent infection of urinary tract. Having unsafe sex with a woman who has vaginal infection can also cause UTI in a man.

Urinary catheters

Catheterization also increases the risk of UTIs, both in males and females. The recurrent insertion, removal irritates the tract and gives bacteria a chance to attack and grow in the tract.

See what our patients are saying!

  • With intense gratitude, i am writing these words for 'AAS Ayurveda' that saved me from undergoing an unavoidable surgery. In May 2015, i was diagnosed with a mobile calculus of 7mm in my gall bladder. I was asked to undergo gall bladder surgery by the physician who advised me for the ultrasound. It was around that time, i approached 'AAS Ayurveda' if they have some cure for this as i have read somewhere that these stones can be removed with some Ayurvedic medicines and special diet plans. I was given a dietary regimen along with a prescription of herbal medications which i was advised to follow for the next 10 days. Following this 10 days protocol period designed for me, I was asked to undergo for the ultrasound again. To my great surprise, the stone in my gall bladder was not there anymore. It was flushed away. I express my heartfelt thanks to the ever approachable and empathetic team of 'AAS Ayurveda' for saving me from a surgery and most importantly; an organ of my body.

  • I took detoxification and overweight management plan from AAS Ayurveda, It was just awesomly cherishing, and something I would call ineffable experience for me to put in the words here. I have never felt so light and yet so full. The plan was suitability customised for me so that I will not feel hungry anytime during my day at office. Dr. Bhupesh Vashisht has been very kind and supportive through out this time. He has guided me well about all the details of the plan, my body constitutions, requirements of body. He also helped me to get over of so many myths I was carrying about diet and weight loss. I have lost around 3.5 kgs in 10 days and surprisingly did not give up food at all. Once again, I extend my heartfelt thanks and gratitude towards the team of Aas Ayurveda and wishing them all the very best for their future endeavors of guiding people towards a healthy journey.

  • The best thing about AAS Ayurveda is their committment towards their patients. They are always easily approachble and engage deeply with their patients. I would like to thank AAS and their doctors for helping me with a treatment to beat the condition of acne. Actually I had been suffering from acne and pimples on my face from last few years and took lot of allopathic treatment but nothing worked. I got to know about AAS through one of my friend and contacted them. The treatment from AAS Ayurveda really helped me to get rid of acne which I thought once was not possible for me. I see them in great regards for the wonderful services they are providing to their patients.

  • My tedious and tiring working schedule of my job and meetings was keeping me away even from my daily water intake which I only observed when I was asked to submit a detailed case registration form by the team of AAS Ayurveda. I was following a very bad life style with no focus on my dietary habits though I always thought I have been taking healthy food but seldom I noticed it about its nutritious values. Here, AAS came to my help that helped me to manage my diet, work and even exercising schdule. I got the problem of GERD and acidity for which I started to take anta-acids at my own that provided me some initial relief but not after some days. AAS Ayurveda planned my treatment and dietary regimen along with my daily workout schedule. The plan was very detailed and elaborative that showed its results only in 10 days. A big thanks to the entire team of AAS Ayurveda.
