Be wary of the three situations of urine, which may be the consultation signal from the kidney

1. A healthy kidney filter the blood of the human body for about 15 times per hour, and the total filtration liquid amount to be completed every day can reach 180 liters [1].

In addition, the kidneys also have the effects of maintaining electrolyte, acid -base balance, regulating human blood pressure, secreting red blood cells to stimulate bone marrow hematopoietic, and maintaining bone health [4].

2. Common causes of chronic kidney disease.

① The disease of the kidney itself, such as nephritis syndrome, nephropathy syndrome, etc.;

② Other diseases damage the kidneys, such as hypertension, diabetes, urinary stones, hyperuricemia, etc.;

③ Drugs, such as some non -steroidal antipripidation and analgesic drugs.

3. Early warning signal of early kidney disease.

红 The color of the urine is red: the qualified and perfect urine is pale yellow, and there is no odor when it is fresh. If the urine color becomes red, it may be hematuria, which appears in urinary tract infection, kidney stones, and some nephritis [5].

Increased foam in the urine: Occasionally, bubbles appear in the urine is normal. If a large amount of foam must be kept, it may be caused by increasing urine protein caused by kidney disease. At this time, the preliminary test judgment of routine urine protein examination is needed.

Pyrodiane: Also known as edema. The typical edema of kidney disease is edema of the eyelids and the depression of the lower limbs.

Press with your fingers for 5 seconds, a small pit will appear.

4. What happens if you lose a kidney?

Under normal circumstances, a kidney has 1 million units, and only about 500,000 units are put into work per time, and other units are "resting"; after one kidney is removed, it undoubtedly increases the other one. The workload of the kidneys.

The kidneys that continue to be in a high load will become more and more exhausted and prone to various problems. Studies also show that the risk of uremia after the human body loses a kidney is 11 times that of normal people. [6].
