The gold standard for healthy peeing for men

 　　1. How many times a day is the most normal time to urinate?

　　a, 6 times; b, 7 times; c, 8 times; d, 9 times

　　Correct answer: c

　　Expert analysis: healthy The ideal urination standard is: 8 times a day, about 300 ml each time, and the total volume does not exceed 3000 ml. If it is not caused by drinking water more than 8 times, it is called frequent urination. Many people think that they always have to urinate. Kidney deficiency . In fact, most frequent urination has nothing to do with the kidneys.

　　If you urinate frequently but have a small urine output, it may be a problem with the bladder and urethra; if you urinate frequently but also have a large urine output, it may be a metabolic disorder. disease , such as diabetes or polyuria. Only if you urinate frequently and have high proteinuria during routine urine tests, you may have a kidney problem.

　　Some people urinate frequently because they always feel the urge to pee. At this time, you can check yourself: If you have an urgent need to urinate, it may be due to overactive bladder; if you have a vague need to urinate but is not too urgent, it may be due to a feeling of overactivity. nerve Chronic inflammation of the bladder caused by allergies, or urinary tract infections.

　　2. How many times is it best to get up at night?

　　a, 0 times; b, 1 time; c, 2 times; d, 3 times

　　Correct answer: b

　　Expert analysis: Urinating 8 times a day, 7 times during the day and 1 time at night is the optimal ratio.

　　Waking up too much at night may be caused by drinking too much water before going to bed. This is normal, and there is no need to deliberately reduce the amount of water you drink at night to stay up late, unless you are a patient with congestive heart failure or hypertension, who needs to control their water intake throughout the day. Don’t worry about drinking too much water at night and wake up in the morning Eye The face will become swollen. Only people with kidney problems will do this. Healthy kidneys will metabolize normally and will not cause edema.

　　In order to reduce the risk of getting up late at night, many elderly people dare not drink any water at night. Over time, this will make their urine very concentrated, leading to bladder stones and other diseases.

　　Another situation is that you don't drink much water at night and you always wake up at night. This is the same as frequent urination during the day. A large amount of urine each time indicates a metabolic disease; a small amount of urine each time indicates a problem with the bladder and urethra.

　　3. After drinking water, how long does it usually take to go to the toilet?

　　a. 10-30 minutes; b. 30-45 minutes; c. 45 minutes-2 hours; d. More than 2 hours

　　Correct answer: b

　　Expert analysis: Generally speaking, it takes 30-45 minutes for water to metabolize normally in the body, which is equivalent to the time of a class in school. However, even if you choose other options in this question, it does not necessarily mean that there is something wrong with your body, especially your kidneys. The length of time water stays in the body is mainly affected by two factors. One is whether the food is salty or light. When you eat too much salt, it will take longer to urinate because salt causes water to be retained in the body.

　　The second is whether you eat more or less. If you drink beer without eating anything before a banquet, you will soon want to go to the toilet; if you drink something after eating something, especially a staple food, you will be less likely to have the urge to urinate. The reason is simple: food absorbs water like a sponge, prolonging the time it takes for it to be excreted.

　　In addition, whether the body is dehydrated and whether the weather is hot or cold will also affect the time of urination. When you sweat all over after exercise, your body is highly dehydrated. All the water you drink is absorbed and is difficult to discharge. When the weather is too cold, it is difficult for water to evaporate through sweat and can only be turned into urine, which makes people want to go to the toilet all the time.

　　4. What is the color of normal urine?

　　a, light brown; b, colorless; c, shiny yellow; d, bright red; e, soy sauce color; f, white.

　　Correct answer: a

　　Expert analysis: Healthy urine should be light yellow and translucent, just like the first time you made tea. When you drink a lot of water, your urine may be colorless like boiled water; when you drink a little water, your urine may be yellow like beer. These situations are normal.

　　Abnormal urine includes the following types: bright yellow, indicating that the urine contains jaundice, or vitamin B2 supplementation, that is, too much riboflavin; bright red like meat washing water, indicating that there are red blood cells in the urine, which may be renal surgical disease or nephritis, or rifampin is affected by anti-tuberculosis drugs; soy sauce color, indicating that there are broken red blood cells in the urine, which may also be nephritis; white, which is rare, indicates that there is chyle in the urine, which comes from filariasis or blockage of the kidneys and lymphatic vessels.

　　5. What is the urine output in a day?

　　a. 100 ml; b. 400 ml; c. 1000 ml; d. 1500 ml; e. 3000 ml

　　Correct answer: d

　　Expert analysis: The amount of urine we excrete every day is about 1500 ml. This is normal urine output. In fact, as long as the daily urine output is more than 400 ml and less than 3000 ml, there is no big problem.

　　Less than 400 ml is called oliguria, which is almost impossible for normal people. Once it occurs, it is mostly acute renal failure; more than 3000 ml is called polyuria, which is mostly due to endocrine diseases such as diabetes or diabetes insipidus, or it may be psychiatric polydipsia. In addition, patients with chronic renal failure may also experience polyuria, especially increased urine output at night.

　　It is completely a misunderstanding to think that drinking more water and urinating more can detoxify. As long as the urine output is within the normal range, it is enough to flush out toxins from the body. There is no need to deliberately drink more water.

　　6. What does healthy urine look like?

　　a. Turbid; b. Clear; c. Strong smell; d. Light smell; e. Lots of foam; f. Less foam

　　Correct answer: b, f

　　Expert analysis: Light yellow, clear and translucent urine is undoubtedly an important criterion for healthy urination. But don’t worry too much about cloudy urine. Especially when the weather is cool, urine tends to become turbid after being left for a while. Even after being left for a long time, white sediment will appear at the bottom of the urinal. This is often caused by the precipitation of salt crystals in the urine and has nothing to do with kidney disease.

　　If there is a lot of foam in the urine, you should arrive in time Hospital Go for a urine test. If proteinuria appears, it may be caused by kidney disease; but if there is no protein in the urine test, this excessive foaming is not abnormal.

　　clinical The smell of urine is rarely used to identify health status, so don’t worry too much about the smell of urine, unless your urine smells like a strange rotten apple, which may be a sign of diabetes.

　　Eliminate residual urine skillfully:

　　If the urine is not discharged completely, it is easy to induce urinary tract infection and become a major cause of illness. How to eliminate residual urine? Experts introduce some tips:

　　After urinating, use your fingers to squeeze the perineal area between the scrotum and anus. This will not only eliminate residual urine, but also help patients with prostatitis It is quite beneficial for people.

　　Frequently perform levator movements to enhance the contraction of perineal muscles and urethral muscles, which can promote the discharge of residual urine as soon as possible.

　　The best way for men to urinate: squatting position to urinate with particularity

　　For men, if they can be like female Changing to squatting style to urinate will make you less susceptible to cancer. It turns out that urinating in a squatting position can cause a series of muscle movements and related reflexes, accelerate the removal of intestinal waste, shorten the residence time of feces in the intestine, and reduce the reabsorption of carcinogens such as hydrogen sulfide, indole, and skatole, thereby protecting the intestinal mucosa from being poisoned by carcinogens. Relevant survey data show that squatting to urinate male The cancer rate is 40% lower than that of those who urinate while standing. This is also one of the secrets of the low incidence of intestinal cancer among Indian men who are accustomed to squatting.

　　What does male urine bifurcation mean?

　　Many men are very concerned about the problem of urinary bifurcation. What kind of physical condition does the phenomenon of urinary bifurcation indicate? What diseases may cause urinary bifurcation?

　　Urinary bifurcation is divided into two categories, one is occasional urinary bifurcation, which is physiological urinary bifurcation; the other is long-term urinary bifurcation, which is pathological urinary bifurcation.

　　Occasional or temporary, most of these have nothing to do with diseases. They are mainly due to temporary obstruction of the urethra or the opening of the urethra. For example, urine accumulates in the bladder overnight, the pressure in the bladder is high, and the force of urine is excreted, which temporarily changes the shape of the urethra orifice and leads to urinary bifurcation. In addition, after men ejaculate, some semen still remains in the urethra, and the congestion of the corpus cavernosum has not completely disappeared, resulting in poor urine flow. These situations are all temporary urinary changes, not pathological, and there is no need to worry.

　　Pathological urinary bifurcation is frequent or long-term urinary bifurcation, which is likely to be related to some diseases. Long-term urinary bifurcation is mostly due to the narrowing of the posterior urethra or urethral opening, or the formation of scars due to chronic inflammation, resulting in the inability to expel urine smoothly. During acute urethritis and prostatitis, due to congestion, swelling, and increased secretions in the urethra, the smooth flow of urine may be affected and bifurcation may occur.
