Too dark If your urine is brown, iced tea-colored, and has some flavor, then you may be dehydrated, or a lot of urine is stored in your kidneys. "Urine can well reflect the dehydration of human body," Faber said. "So if the patient is dizzy or dizzy, he needs a urine test to find out the reason and see if it is the result of dehydration." The ideal color is straw. If you drink a lot of water, but you urinate less, it also means that there is something wrong with your body, probably because of blood. Of course, there is no bleeding when going to the toilet, but it may be a sign of renal bleeding, which may involve infection, kidney disease and even cancer.
Aromatic smell If the urine contains a little fragrance, it means that your body is in a very bad state. "If there is a smell in the urine, it means that the urine contains blood sugar," Farber said. The reason for the high incidence of diabetes is that urine contains blood sugar. The kidney acts as a filter in the body, filtering all kinds of garbage in the body. If your "filter" is broken, garbage will leak out in other forms and be excreted through urine. If you are pregnant, the renal filtration system may change and blood sugar will appear in the urine. Whether you are pregnant or not, if the doctor finds that your urine contains sugar, he or she will conduct further tests to determine whether you have diabetes.
Interesting smell If the urine contains a little unknown smell, there may be some minor problems in your body, but you don't have to worry. Some foods-asparagus, as we all know-produce a sulfur-containing amino acid. Therefore, once food is digested in the digestive system, those unpleasant substances are released, filtered by the kidneys, and then enter the urinary system, which will have an unpleasant smell. As long as the food is completely digested and discharged from your body, the smell will disappear.
Bright yellow urine is bright yellow, which may be shocking, but the reason for this is the ghost of vitamins in the body. Deborah J, associate professor of urology at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, said, "Vitamin B and carotene make urine dark and golden", but don't worry, bright yellow urine only means that you filter out valuable vitamins, and it doesn't matter whether it is absorbed and utilized by your body.
Blood spots If there is blood in urine, it will cause many problems-some may be benign and some may be very serious. "For this reason, once you find blood in urine, you should consult your doctor," leitner warned. "For healthy women, blood in urine may be a urinary tract infection, but it does not rule out that blood is one of the seven fatal causes of bladder cancer, both men and women." In addition to infection or (in the worst case) cancer, hematuria may also be a minor injury or a side effect of tears, kidney calculi or taking aspirin.
Often, you will often see people engaged in business rushing to the bathroom frequently and urgently. There are many reasons for this phenomenon, unless the frequency of going to the toilet really affects your life, you won't care (or take the medicine introduced in the advertisement yourself). First, look at your diet and lifestyle. If you take a water cup everywhere and drink more water, it is understandable that you go to the bathroom more often than usual. Besides, maybe you have changed your eating habits recently. The food you eat contains more water (such as fruits and vegetables), which can be used as a diuretic, or you can start taking drugs (such as drugs for treating hypertension) or as a diuretic. One of the common symptoms of urinary tract infection is urgency (but I can't get up when I go to the toilet). Whether women or men are getting older, they can make the kidneys and bladder urinate all the time. For men, the prostate may have some influence. It is not uncommon for men. Prostate blockage in elderly men leads to weak urine flow and bladder problems.
Urinary incontinence is one of many problems that people don't want to discuss, but many women-some even young women who have never given birth-have experienced urinary incontinence. "Stress is one of the causes of urinary incontinence. Pelvic floor muscles can't handle high-impact activities like running or gymnastics, or even the stress caused by coughing or sneezing," leitner said. The pelvic floor is too fragile, and the only result of such pressure is that a small amount of urine will leak out. Once this happens-it will get worse in the future-especially after a woman gives birth. The best solution is to do Kaigl exercise regularly (repeatedly exercise muscles to prevent urine leakage). The other is called urge incontinence, which shows bladder failure rather than muscle weakness. "When the bladder decides to release pressure, you will receive a signal to go to the bathroom." Leitner said.
Burning sensation If you suddenly feel burning sensation when urinating, it is one of the signs of urinary tract infection. This phenomenon is very common for women who have had sex. Because the physiological structure of premenopausal women is that the distance between urethra, vagina and rectum is very close, this distance disadvantage causes bacteria to easily enter urethra, and even leads to urethral carcinoma in severe cases. Oral antibiotics can solve this infection within a few days, so the increase in urine volume will also help reduce the degree of infection and drive away bacteria. Men's urinary system is rarely infected, but it can happen-and, leitner warns, the signs of prostate are just like those of women.
