【小便知多點】餘瀝未盡的感覺
#小便過後還是尿急
#尿道炎真的是女性之苦
#星期二提升正能量
紓緩小便短赤靠清熱
有沒有試過小便後還是覺得急，但再去又只有幾滴，淋漓不盡，總是去不清似的，而排尿時也會感覺不順暢，更有尿道澀痛或腰腹不適，這時候女生們就知道，惱人的尿道炎又找上門了！由於生理結構的關係，女性相對容易患上尿道感染，從中醫角度來說，這種症狀皆為「淋證」的範疇，病因多為外感風熱，濕熱之邪下注膀胱，或脾腎兩虛，中氣不足，濕邪留戀不走，影響膀胱氣化不利，這類因濕熱而起的尿道炎多為急性，治療以清熱利濕為主。如症狀未能改善便要看中醫較穩妥！
急性尿道炎症狀：
– 小便次數多、量少
– 斷斷續續，淋漓不盡
– 小便時更會感覺尿道疼痛
– 尿色偏黃
– 嚴重的甚至有血尿
發作時注意事項：
– 一定要多喝水
– 忌吃辛辣食物
– 多喝紅莓汁，由於紅莓的原花青素可令細菌難以黏附在尿道壁
– 飲用西瓜或西芹汁，都有清熱利水的作用，脾胃虛寒者不宜
– 雞蛋花茶療清熱利小便：
材料：雞蛋花乾15克、木棉花15克、茵陳6克
做法：將材料洗淨，放入保溫杯中。以熱水沖洗一次，再注入熱水焗30分鐘即可，可反覆沖泡至無味。症狀嚴重者可以連續服用這茶2-3天。
日常預防注意事項：
– 定時補充水份，別以其他飲品代替清水
– 切忌忍尿
– 注意衛生，要定時更換衛生用品
– 選擇透氣棉質的內褲
– 小便後清潔時，應由前抹向後
