Identification of foam and kidney disease

Under normal circumstances, the urine surface tension is very low, the formation of less bubbles. Urine contains some organic substances and inorganic substances, so that the urine tension and some foam, so the urine bubble is not necessarily sick. However, due to various reasons, the composition of urine changes, the urine surface tension increased, the bubble will increase.

Bubble urine causes

1. liver and kidney disease, the urine of bilirubin or protein content increased, increased urine surface tension, urination can produce more bubbles.

2. Bladder diseases such as cystitis, bladder cancer, etc., or other urinary tract infections, so that the composition of urine easily change and produce bubbles.

3. Diabetes, urinary urine or urine ketone body content increased, the pH of the urine changes, increased urine surface tension.

4. urinary tract in the presence of gas, the urine can produce bubbles.

In short, there are many reasons for the bubble in the urine, but when the urine is particularly large, big bubbles and longer duration, should go to the hospital as soon as possible to check is appropriate.

Reminder: If the urine bubble automatically dissipated within a short time that no problem, if the urine bubble does not automatically dissipate for a long time that the kidney may be a problem, this urine may be proteinuria. Proteinuria is an important symptom of kidney disease, please pay attention. Long-term urine bubble situation should go to the regular hospital for urine test.

How to check bubble urine

1. There is foam
Urinary foam does not disappear for a long time, suggesting that may be proteinuria, which is due to protein in the urine, the surface tension becomes larger, leaving the urine bubble is not easy to disappear, the other liver disease patients often smoke yellow foam long time.


2. See transparency
Normal urine clear and transparent, such as the discharge of urine was turbid, even after the precipitation of salt mostly salt, in addition to the diet, the attention is accompanied by sand particles, if any, is the stone. Urine was pus-like turbidity, accompanied by floc, said pyuria, urinary tract infection is a sign.


Smell the smell
Normal fresh urine has a specific smell, after a period of time, the decomposition of urine and ammonia, it is ammonia odor, chronic cystitis and urinary retention performance. Diabetic ketoacidosis, can be apple-like smell. In addition, some food and medicine, such as garlic, onions, valerian, etc., can also make the urine was a special smell
