General Bladder Infection / Cystitis Information
Bladder infection, or cystitis, occurs when bacteria (usually E. coli that is normally found in the colon) enters the bladder. The bladder is a hollow, muscular organ located behind the pubic bone that functions to collect and store urine until it is released. Urine is carried from the kidneys to the bladder through the ureters, then the urine is released through an opening at its lowest point into the urethra. Bladder infections are relatively common in women because of the close proximity of the anus, vagina and urethra, making it easy for bacteria to travel into the bladder. Cystitis is less common in men and can be a sign of a more serious condition, such as problems with the
prostate gland. Cystitis is not a serious health problem itself, but it may lead to kidney infection if not treated.

Possible Causes of Bladder Infection / Cystitis
Nearly 85 percent of bladder infections are caused by Escherichia coli, a bacterium normally found in the intestines. The E.coli bacteria often enters the urethra if a woman wipes from back to front after a bowel movement. Chlamiydia may also cause bladder infections in women. In men, bacteria enters the bladder by traveling up the urethra or moving from an infected prostate gland.

Possible Symptoms of Bladder Infection / Cystitis
Signs of cystitis include an urgent desire to empty the bladder. Urination is typically painful and frequent, even after the bladder has been emptied. The urine often has a
strong odor and may look cloudy. There may also be blood in the urine. Other symptoms include fever, vomiting, chills, painful intercourse and fatigue. Children with bladder infections often complain of lower abdominal pain and a burning sensation during urination.

Possible Lifestyle Changes for Bladder Infection / Cystitis
Drink plenty of water and cranberry juice. Always wipe from front to back after going to the bathroom. Keep the genital area clean and urinate often. Be sure to empty the
bladder completely when urinating. Avoid douching. Take showers instead of baths. Always urinate after intercourse and drink two full glasses of water to flush out the
bladder. A person with a bladder infection should avoid alcohol, caffeine, spicy foods and citrus juices, which irritate the bladder.
