Saya nak kongsikan satu email dari ahli Myherba egroup berkaitan proses pembuangan air kencing dan kesan buruk jika seringkali melewatkannya. Penjelasan yang diberikan ringkas tapi padat dengan maklumat.

Cik Cinta kasih,
Apa yang saudara mengalami ialah Cystitis. Biasanya akibat melewati pergi kencing. Again a common problem amongst the fairer sex.
Yang penting bukan ubat. Yang pentingnya process pembuangan air mestilah mengikut signal badan Actually we can schedule this by teaching our bladder to open at specific time. Bila kita melewatkan pembuangan air kita hanya menyimpan kekotoran yang perlu dibuang itu dan ini akan menyebabkan kuman merebak. Satu lagi yang berlaku ialah congestion kepada pundi kencing serta saluran urethra. Ini akan menyebabkan rasa sakit bila hendak kencing, stangury (atau rasa hendak kencing sangat-sangat), kencing kerap dan sikit-sikit dan jika melarat lagi akan mendapat terminal haematuria (atau kencing berdarah diakhir kencing). Tekanan yang meningkat didalam pundi kencing akan disebarkan kepada buah pinggang dan membuka saluran untuk kuman merebak ke buah pinggang. All this because we do not have the time to go and ease ourselves when we need to.
Bila mengidap cystitis the easiest and cheapest solution is to drink plenty of water and to go to the toilet as often as possible to flush out the bladder. Take anything that would alkalanize your urine eg. ENO. (yang doktor selalu bagi ialah Potassium citrate – air masam tu). ENO works the same way. Dua kali sehari sudah cukup. Atau pun minum lime juice, orange juice, pineapple juice. All these will help alkalanize your urine and ease the pain and inflammation. Kalau tidak berjaya baru jumpa doctor untuk mendapatkan antibiotics to fight off the overwhelming infection.
Tak perlu makan sebarang tumbuhan. I have to admit I do use some of the plants that fellow members suggested but not for simple cystitis. Kecibeling or Stobilanthes crispis is good for Kidney stones and I use them for my patients with this disease. But please be advised that you have to be properly diagnosed as having it and also does not have compromised kidneys. Stobilanthes crispus and Misai Kucing has very high content of Potassium which can be dangerous for patients with renal failure.
Kita harus berhati-hati bila memberi nasihat. Jika kita tak tahu menahu the intricacies of treatment it can be dangerous for our friends. I have had many people listening to advice from friend and end up with many complications that doctors find puzzling to treat. Please note that not many doctors have any idea about plants and their effects. Jadi kalau jadi complication tiada siapa yang boleh tolong. Kawan yang memberi nasihat atau kesyoran are equally ignorant dan selalunya berdiam diri saja.
