Apa itu UTI?

UTI is an abbreviation for Urinary Tract Infection. Kalau dalam term bahasa, orang lebih faham as kencing kotor. Bukan kotor yang ada visible dirt tu (well, in my case not)


Usually, mangsa mangsa yang kena adalah orang pregnant. Can google why. Tak silap pasal saluran kencing tu kecil and buatkan bila rahim megembang, saluran tu jadi sumbat so cannot pee. Kalau pee pun, sikit je.


But in my case, I think because of the intimate wash that I bought recently. Little that I know that this could cause the disease. From my understanding there are few logics that could cause this issue to me (as discussed with GP)


1- Some intimate wash could disturb the ph value around vagina area. Hence, causing the good bacteria hilang or tak sure nak cakap macam mana. So the bad bacteria would overcome the good bacteria and then causing these bacteria untuk naik ke saluran kencing kita. Bila pee, kita sakit.

2- Maybe because of sebab tahan kencing. This habit could be in the list too. The intimate wash tu trigger UTI.

3- Lubang kencing dengan dubur dekat sangat for girls. Hence, explain why girls selalu kena UTI.


But I think logic no 1 tu valid dengan my case.


I start rasa sakit pukul 230 am, June 11, 2014. Rasa macam kencing tak puas. Like you got 50ml urine nak dikeluarkan dari pundi kencing, tapi yang keluar hanya 5ml. So how does it feel? Of course bloody pain. Nak keluarkan dah sakit, more like ngilu. No matter berapa kali batuk and tekan my bottom part untuk keluarkan it wont come out. So I masuk bilik, try sleeping but it was hard when you still have the urge to go pee tapi takmau keluar. Keluar balik p toilet, more than 15 times I guess. Nearly cried. Badan tetiba panas. My hands were shaking. Nak keluarkan all urine tu took almost 3 hours. Imagine the pain.


Masa tu takut nak minum air, sebab takut dia taknak keluar. Dah sebab rasa haus sangat, minum jugak. Pastu bila nak pee tu, okay sikit sebab boleh keluar. And then nak sleep pun sedih, sebab tidur tapi nak terkencing tak bestnya. I tidur macam bersujud pastu letak bantal bawah perut pastu sleep dengan selubung dengan comforter sebab sejuk sangat. Like I said badan memang panas gila. Sambil nak tidur tu sempat lagi google simptom. Masa tu ada baca pasal UTI, tapi tak rasa pun kena benda ni.


Esoknya bangun, memang tak larat nak pergi kerja. Dah decide nak pergi klinik sebab tak tahan sangat. Kencing yang malam tadi boleh keluar. But still ada rasa urine tertinggal dalam pundi. Cakap dengan my mother, dia suspect batu karang. I was like, you serious mommmmmmm. Siap suruh beli lobak putih untuk buat apetah T T


Dah pergi jumpa doc, dia cakap maybe UTI. Tapi kena buat urine test dulu untuk confirmation. Lepas tu dia confirm UTI sebab ada trace of blood dalam my pee. Not that blood is visible to human eyes. I was freaked out when she said kencing ada darah hahahaha.


Pastu bagi antibiotik, urispas and urasoft, then settle. So I'm still on medication. Not sure how long will it take. But everytime pergi pee, there's this ngilu yang rasa macam ugh. Trauma nak pergi pee boleh.


My colleague said minum barli. I've encountered some blogs cakap minum barli and cranberry juice. So beli jelah cranberry air kotak tu. Nak buat barli, dari hari tu nak buat tapi selalu lupa.


Conclusionnya, nak bersih sangat pun tak boleh sangat.
