#AskTheExpert why does the UTI comes again and again

1 Answer
Shabnam SheikhMom of 2 children3 years ago
A. hi...If you have a daughter, wiping from the front to the back can prevent and treat UTI. There is also a good reason to back this up. Pee and poop have unhealthy bacteria which can cause infections if they come in contact with the urethra and the urinary tract. So, when you clean your child’s private areas, remember to wipe from the front to the back (and not vice-versa) and use a different toilet paper for the genitals and the anus. You can tell your toddler to urinate often. She may not comply because urination, is painful when one is suffering from UTI. However, positive encouragement can do wonders. You can tell her that the more she urinates, the sonner the pain will cease. Vitamin C acidifies the urine and keeps the bladder healthy. Therefore, giving Vitamin C-rich fruits or Vitamin C supplements, after consulting a doctor, is a good way to treat UTI in kids.
