Girls’ urethra is shorter and closer to the anus, which is more likely to cause urinary tract infections. Children can be treated with general therapy and medication to relieve symptoms.
1. General treatment: Children need to rest more, drink more water and urinate more often to flush the urinary tract and promote recovery. Pay attention to perineal hygiene and change underwear regularly.
2. Drug treatment: girls with urinary tract infections are mainly caused by Escherichia coli, staphylococcus and other bacterial infections, children also need to use cephalosporin, penicillin and other antibiotics for treatment. In order to avoid the abuse of antibiotics, it is generally necessary to choose the appropriate antibacterial drug treatment through the results of urine culture and drug sensitivity test.
It is recommended that children strictly follow the doctor’s instructions to use medication, pay attention to balanced nutrition, ensure adequate sleep, and develop good habits of life and work.
