In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Common symptoms include the following: A persistent urge to urinate, even when you just emptied your bladder. A painful, burning sensation when you urinate Passing small amounts of urine. Cloudy and strong-smelling urine. Feeling pressure in the lower part of your abdomen and discomfort in your pelvic area A low-grade fever. Small amounts of blood in your urine. Children may have symptoms that include irritability, poor appetite, and trouble controlling the bladder. Other names for cystitis are bladder infections, and urinary tract infections. Starting treatment promptly can help you to feel better quickly and prevent any complications, such as a kidney infection. Sometimes, cystitis can cause discomfort in the abdomen or pelvic area or low-grade fever. You can treat these symptoms with an over-the-counter NSAID (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug). Common NSAIDs include ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB) and naproxen sodium (Aleve). You can also take acetaminophen (Tylenol), which isn't an anti-inflammatory but can help relieve pain and fever. Take the lowest possible dose that's effective. Overdosing or prolonged use of OTC painkillers can cause serious complications. If you experience back or side pain, fever and chills, or nausea and vomiting, seek medical help immediately. You may have an infection that requires immediate treatment. Your doctor may want to collect a urine sample to verify the presence of bacteria. The most common type of bacteria that causes cystitis is called Escherichia coli, or E. coli. Your doctor will know which antibiotic you need to effectively manage the infection. Take the antibiotic exactly as prescribed, and for the full duration of the prescription. By doing this you can be sure you have completely treated the condition, and will not have a sudden relapse of your symptoms. Talk to your doctor before you proceed with any herbal remedies. Antibiotics are the drugs of choice when an active infection is involved. Your doctor is your best resource if you are considering herbs or herbal remedies to treat your symptoms. Depending on the severity of the cystitis, your doctor may recommend or prescribe drugs called urinary tract analgesics. These medications help minimize the discomfort felt when urinating. The most common agent used is called phenazopyridine. You still need to take antibiotics even if your doctor recommends taking phenazopyridine. Drink as much water as you can each day. This helps to flush out the bacteria that are growing in your urinary tract, including your bladder. The Institute of Medicine recommends that men drink about 13 cups (3 liters) of fluids per day. Women should drink about 9 cups (2.2 liters) of fluids per day. If you have an infection, you may want to drink more. Cranberry juice is mildly acidic and helps to lower the amount of bacteria in your bladder. Taking higher doses of ascorbic acid, or vitamin C, may be helpful during this time as this also helps to make your urine slightly acidic. Acidic urine makes it harder for the bacteria to live. Beverages that contain caffeine, such as tea and coffee, can be irritating to the lining of your bladder. The bacteria that is causing your bladder infection attaches itself to the lining area of your bladder and causes irritation, which contributes to the pain you experience. Avoiding beverages that can further irritate the lining of your bladder can help to prevent additional pain, and promote healing. Consuming soft drinks, sugary sodas, and fruit juices, add sugar to the fluids that pass through your bladder. Sugar is a nutrient for bacteria to grow. Avoiding these types of beverages during this time can help to promote healing and prevent further bacterial growth. Drinking just water and cranberry juice is the best option while you have symptoms. Some evidence suggests that sex can make cystitis worse. If you do have sex, use plenty of lubrication to help reduce friction and irritation.
Summary: Identify your symptoms. Talk to your doctor as soon as you develop symptoms. Take an NSAID or acetaminophen for pain. Take antibiotics. Take medications to help with urinary discomfort. Drink plenty of water. Add cranberry juice to the fluids you drink. Avoid drinking fluids that contain sugar or irritants. Avoid sex until the infection has cleared up.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Without the benefit of hindsight, it's often quite difficult to know what's motivating the other person or what they truly feel or think about you. Rather than assume they must just hate you, allow for the possibility that you're projecting feelings that may not be there. Understand that they're just as human as you are. Everyone has struggles in their lives that contribute to how they act--it's entirely possible your enemy is antagonistic because of difficulties they're struggling with. Learn from the quote often attributed to Abraham Lincoln: "I don't like that man. I must get to know him better." Pay close attention to the people who get along with your enemy. Learn from how they handle the dynamic to gain insight into what may not be working between you and your enemy and why. If it's a kind of behavior you're comfortable emulating, try picking up tips from your observations to see if you can rejigger the tenor of you and your enemy's relationship. Knowing what they're trying to achieve is crucial to dealing with the problem. Are they jealous of something you have? Did you (consciously or unconsciously) slight them in some way? Do you do something that annoys them? Knowing what's driving their behavior can help you get out in front of their negative behavior and possibly blunt the effect their actions have on you. When you know what's motivating the person's behavior, you can begin to address it. You'll have two options: improve the relationship or learn how to limit their effect on you. If it's an issue of a small habit or behavior you have that irritates them, you can consider not doing those things around them or sitting down with them to explain your behavior and help them accept it. If it's a more serious issue or you simply can't figure out what their problem is, confront them about it. Nothing shuts down misconceptions or bad feelings like addressing them head-on. Apologize if it's warranted. If you did something either knowingly or unknowingly to upset them, apologize sincerely (and don't do it again) so you can both move on. Talk to the person calmly and coolly. Don't accuse or antagonize, just have an honest conversation. Even if your enemy says rude or insensitive things about you, your friends, or your family, don't give them the satisfaction of seeing it upset you. In these situations, your enemy is simply looking for a reaction, and when they get one it will only encourage them to continue the behavior. If you want it to stop, start by ignoring them and their comments. Don't listen to or spread rumors; it only perpetuates the problem. The more emotionally engaged you become, the more power you're giving to your enemy. Avoid them. Limit your contact with them as much as possible. Sometimes distance is enough to diffuse the situation. Nothing balances the negative impact of an enemy like having allies. The more people you have on your side and who see you as kind, helpful, respectful, etc., the less impact any potential enemy sabotage can have on you. When you're tempted to say something negative about your enemy, turn that energy around and instead say something nice to another person. Spreading positivity rather than negativity will give you the advantage over your enemy.
Summary:
Know the limits of your knowledge. Learn from others. Find out what they want. Decide how to respond. Don't encourage their behavior. Cultivate allies.
