What are the reasons for urine having an odor?
Many people discover that their urine is yellow and emits a foul smell when urinating, and some even experience pain during urination. This actually indicates the presence of urinary system diseases or kidney problems, which require attention and active examination. Excessive internal heat, excessive mental stress and anxiety, or increased body protein can all cause urine to smell. Timely adjustment and improvement are needed. What are the reasons for strong urine odor?
1. Excessive Internal Heat: Some people experience varying degrees of internal heat due to excessive mental stress or prolonged lack of water intake. Patients with excessive internal heat may smell a rotten apple odor when urinating, and some may smell a sour and foul odor after urinating. Timely adjustment is recommended, and traditional Chinese medicine can be used to improve the condition.
2. Urinary Tract Infection: When patients experience urethritis or bladder infection, there will be a foul odor, which is a sign of bacterial infection. Therefore, immediate hospital examination is necessary, and urine or blood tests can be used to confirm the diagnosis.
3. Proteinuria: Some patients may experience an increase in protein in their urine due to certain diseases, leading to proteinuria and accompanying foul odors. Diseases such as diabetes and glomerulonephritis can cause similar symptoms, so timely examination and diagnosis are essential to avoid delaying the best treatment time.
