Despite the modernity of Western medicine, it cannot be denied that there are people who believe more in the use of Chinese medicines to treat their ailments. Chinese medical treatment methods appeared as early as 700 BC, and the Taoists were the first to develop the so-called traditional Chinese medicine.
Urinary tract infection is a disease that often recurs, and some patients already fear the use of antibiotics as a treatment for UTI. Here, knowing how to cure UTIs using Chinese traditional medicines can be a suitable alternative treatment.
Taoist beliefs adhered to the principles of "yin" and "yang." According to their research, the universe is actually a cycle of opposites. If there is a day, then there is night, heat and cold, good and bad. The positive is always negative.
“Yin” in Chinese is considered the shadow side or darkness, and “yang” is considered the sunny side or brightness. Now this, as they say, is a key element in understanding how we can cure a UTI using Chinese treatment methods.
While the Western treatment method will cure IMI with antibiotics, traditional Chinese treatment should determine what “yin” is in this disorder and will resolve this issue. Accordingly, the "yin" in the UTI is the heat that affects the kidney.
Thus, the opposite of cold heat, it will be a treatment aimed at eliminating the kidneys. The principle, however, is not far from the western theory that the factor of heat allows germs to flourish when thermal moisture is retained in our underwear.
It may also be related to the advice of the physician to take plenty of water to hydrate the kidneys. Chinese treatment also concerns kidney detoxification, taking a mixture of “Ba Zheng San” or roughly translates to “eight powders of ingredients to correct urination disorders”.
In more serious cases of UTI, traditional Chinese treatment includes herbs and acupuncture. There are acupuncture points that will be given attention, and one of them is known as Ren 3 or “Average Summit.”
This affects the part of the body above the bladder, while the other part, which is the spleen 9 or “spring of the Yin tomb”, will also be important. The latter is located just below the knee, inside the bone of the tibia. The use of needles for acupuncture in these pressure points will allow you to turn the wet heat, so that it leaves stagnation.
In addition to these Chinese medicines, the patient will also be recommended to change their lifestyle. If suffering is associated with unsafe sex practices, the patient will be advised to take great care because this is the root cause of his suffering.
This leads us to conclude whether treatment is western or Chinese, treatment methods for UTI are always a matter of correction or treatment of the underlying cause of urinary tract infection.
