High temperatures, dehydration, and prolonged wear of wet swimsuits create conditions that promote microbial growth and the onset of symptoms, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Burning sensation during urination<\/li>\n<li>Frequent urination<\/li>\n<li>Strong urge to urinate<\/li>\n<li>Pain or pressure in the lower abdomen<\/li>\n<li>Cloudy or foul-smelling urine<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In some cases, fever or back pain may occur, signs that require immediate medical evaluation.<\/p>\n<p>Reduced water intake leads to less frequent expulsion of microbes through urine. Additionally, moisture from swimsuits and long hours at the beach can promote irritation and bacterial growth. Therefore:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Drink plenty of water daily.<\/li>\n<li>Change out of wet swimsuits as soon as possible.<\/li>\n<li>Follow proper personal hygiene practices.<\/li>\n<li>Do not postpone urination when you feel the need.<\/li>\n<li>Choose cotton underwear that allows the skin to breathe.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A urinary tract infection should not be neglected. With a simple urine test and appropriate medical evaluation, it can be effectively treated and complications avoided.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_tablet=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_phone=&#8221;default&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; row_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; row_border_radius_applies=&#8221;bg&#8221; row_position_desktop=&#8221;default&#8221; row_position_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; row_position_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; overflow=&#8221;visible&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; flex_gap_desktop=&#8221;10px&#8221; column_element_direction_desktop=&#8221;default&#8221; column_element_spacing=&#8221;default&#8221; desktop_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221;&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2164,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2169","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mi-katigoriopoiimeno"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/naxosmedical.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2169","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/naxosmedical.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/naxosmedical.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/naxosmedical.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/naxosmedical.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2169"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/naxosmedical.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2169\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2172,"href":"https:\/\/naxosmedical.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2169\/revisions\/2172"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/naxosmedical.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2169"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/naxosmedical.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2169"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/naxosmedical.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2169"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
