I am slightly allergic to cats, but no real reaction. September 21, 2009 | medhelp.org. All of the cold symptoms went away, but the mucus in the back of my throat is still there! ...I'm currently taking a nasal steroid and Singulair, but it doesn't seem to be helping.
The bacteria can travel up through the urethra, into the bladder, and in a worst-case scenario, up to the kidneys. Honeymoon cystitis is a term that refers to getting a urinary tract infection after having sex with a new partner.
Urinary tract infections occur more frequently in women than in men because a womanâs urethra is shorter and closer to the anus than in men, allowing easier entry of bacteria into the urethra. Women are also more likely to get an infection after sexual activity or when using a diaphragm for birth control.
