Looking at men's health from the height of urinating

Master Zhang, the bus driver, will reach retirement age in two years. There are symptoms of frequent urination and urgency. Last year, the physical examination found chronic prostatitis. Because there were no other obvious symptoms, I didn't care. But recently, I found that the first time I urinated in the morning was black and yellow, and the smell was very strong. Bifurcation will occur when urinating, and even symptoms of urinary pain will appear. After going to the hospital for examination, I was diagnosed as an acute attack of chronic prostatitis and needed medical treatment.

In fact, urination is a signal light for male reproductive and urinary system health. Different symptoms correspond to different reproductive and urinary diseases, which need attention, timely medical treatment and active treatment.

Urinary bifurcation

Urinary bifurcation refers to the formation of two or more urine streams at the urethral orifice when urine flows out. Such micturition symptoms are more common in patients with prostatitis and prostatic hyperplasia.

Incomplete emptying

Incomplete micturition refers to incomplete or dripping urine during micturition. It is more common in male prostate diseases, urinary calculi, urinary tract tumors and abnormal physiological structures.

Urine turbidity (white urine drops)

Turbid urine and white urine drops refer to turbid urine, or white sticky urine, or rice swill, which generally indicates inflammation of the urogenital system, such as prostatitis.

have difficulty in urination

Dysuria refers to the inability to excrete urine naturally when urinating. It takes a long time to urinate, some will drip out, and even you need to bulge your stomach to excrete urine. This situation often suggests prostate hypertrophy, prostate cancer, acute prostatitis, urethral inflammation, calculus, tumor, urethral tumor and other diseases.

The waste produced by human body and the urine pigment discharged every day are generally relatively constant, so the color of urine will not change much. 96%-99% of urine is water, and most of the rest is waste, such as uric acid and creatinine.

What does healthy urine look like?

Urine color: light yellow and transparent, without precipitation or turbidity. Of course, many factors will affect the color of urine, such as the amount of drinking water, the change of body temperature, the role of food and drugs, and so on. When drinking more water, urine may be as colorless as boiled water; When you drink less water and sweat more, your urine may turn yellow like beer, which is normal.

What are the benefits of unhealthy urine?

Bright yellow, indicating that the urine contains jaundice, or vitamin B2 is supplemented, that is, riboflavin is excessive;

Bright red like meat washing water indicates that there are red blood cells in the urine, which may be kidney surgery or nephritis, or rifampicin. Affected by anti-tuberculosis drugs;

Soy sauce, rupture of red blood cells in urine, or nephritis;

White, relatively rare, indicates chyle in urine, which is caused by filariasis or renal and lymphatic obstruction.

In fact, because urine contains urine pigment, the color of normal urine should be white or yellowish, often yellowish. If the color is too yellow, it may not be caused by disease, but it cannot be ruled out.
