When a man goes to the toilet 'for the first time' in the morning, if there are no 3 phenomena, it may indicate that the kidney function is not bad

The kidneys play a big role in helping our body detoxify. The kidney referred to in Western medicine is a solid organ, one on the left and one on the left, shaped like broad beans, located on both sides of the spine. It is where urine is produced and human waste is eliminated. When pathological changes occur, such as nephritis, renal failure, kidney stones, etc.

01 What is the main function of the kidney?

1. Produce urinary metabolic waste.

The kidneys excrete nitrogenous products such as urea, creatinine, and creatine. Otherwise, these urea, creatinine and creatine will accumulate in the body, causing poisoning and even uremia. The average daily urine output of normal people is 1500-2000 ml.

In order to maintain normal excretory function, renal blood flow is generally kept within a constant range, and the glomerular filtration rate is about 120ml/min. The kidneys have their own regulatory functions. Renal plasma flow is regulated by tubule feedback, renal nerves and vasoactive substances, and the glomerular filtration rate is kept within a certain range.

2. Endocrine function.

The kidney is the most important endocrine organ in the human body, which can produce and secrete. When the kidneys are insufficient, it will lead to insufficient vitamin D activity and corresponding diseases. When the kidneys are damaged, the above-mentioned vasoactive substances may become unbalanced, resulting in an increase in blood pressure. The kidney can also secrete a variety of cytokines, which play an important role in regulating life activities.

The kidney itself can produce renin, which then plays a certain auxiliary role in the maturation and production of red blood cells. At the same time, it also produces active vitamin D and prostaglandins.

3. Maintain fluid balance and acid-base balance in the body.

Kidney through glomerular filtration, reabsorption and secretion of renal tubules, excrete excess water in the body, regulate acid-base balance, and stabilize the internal environment.

The examination revealed that there was something wrong with the kidneys. Of course, the kidneys can participate in acid-base balance. The main principle for the kidney to regulate the acid-base balance is to regulate the acid-base balance by secreting hydrogen ions, pseudo-collars and ammonia ions. At the same time, it is also reabsorbed to retain water and glucose proteins.

02 If there are no three phenomena, go to the toilet, if there are no three phenomena, or the kidney function is good.

Foam in the urine.

Usually the surface tension of the urine is very low, and the foams in the urine vary in size and disappear quickly, mainly due to physiological reasons. If the foam in the urine is very small and does not disappear for a long time, it may be a pathological cause, and a medical examination should be carried out for a clear diagnosis and treatment.

Generally, the urine is light yellow and transparent. According to normal urine, there should be no foam, mainly because the surface tension of urine is very strong and there are few foams. But if there are some organic and inorganic substances in the urine, the tension of the urine will be weakened, and some foam will appear.

2. Yellow urine.

The physiological cause of yellow urine is that the patient drinks too little water, sweats too much or gets angry. Patients can eat more heat-clearing and detoxifying foods and drink plenty of water, and the symptoms will be relieved in a few days. In addition, taking vitamin E or other drugs can also cause yellow urine.

Urinary tract infection, diabetes screening, STD screening, glomerular disease, kidney cysts, stones, benign prostatic hyperplasia, UTI and tumor screening are also available. In general, the possibility of infection and stones is the greatest and most common. Drink plenty of water clinically and don't be too nervous.

3. Poor urination.

Urinary obstruction is a very common clinical disease. In patients with obstructed urination, it can be male or female, and in males, it can be elderly men or young and middle-aged men. If female urine is not smooth, it may be urinary system infection, such as urethritis, cystitis and so on.

If the urine in the bladder is blocked during the discharge process, causing the urine to be blocked from the bladder, it will cause symptoms of poor urination. Depending on the cause of the obstruction.

03 What are the common kidney diseases?

1. Kidney failure

Renal failure refers to abnormal kidney function. Acute renal failure refers to a rapid decline in renal function in a short period of time, manifested as elevated serum creatinine, elevated blood urea nitrogen, hyperkalemia, and acidosis. There are many causes of acute renal failure, after controlling it.

Chronic renal failure is often related to chronic nephritis, diabetes, hypertension and other basic kidney diseases, manifested as elevated blood pressure, nausea, vomiting and other symptoms.

2. Uremia

Uremia generally refers to the late stage of chronic renal failure, that is, the 4th and 5th stages of chronic renal failure. During this period, the patient's kidneys cannot perform normal functions, which can lead to disturbance of water, electrolyte and acid-base balance, and endocrine dysfunction may occur.

A collection of symptoms and signs is known as uremia. Uremia is the end-stage manifestation of renal failure. There are many reasons for it. As long as the glomeruli, renal tubules, renal interstitium, and renal blood vessels can be damaged, uremia will occur.

3. Pyelonephritis.

Pyelonephritis is a urinary tract infection, divided into upper urinary tract infection and lower urinary tract infection. Upper urinary tract infections include pyelonephritis, ureteritis, cystitis, or urethritis.

The most common bacteria causing urinary tract infection is Escherichia coli, and the incidence rate is higher in women, which is closely related to female urinary anatomy, urethra and anus distance.

4. Kidney tuberculosis

Renal tuberculosis is usually secondary to tuberculosis lesions in other parts of the body, which is the most common and first occurrence of urinary tuberculosis, and can then spread from the kidneys to the entire urinary system. Kidney tuberculosis occurs mainly in adults. 75% of China's comprehensive statistics occur between the ages of 20-40, but it can also occur in young people and the elderly. Men have a slightly higher incidence than women.

5. Nephritis

Nephritis is a group of clinical syndromes characterized by proteinuria, hematuria, edema, and hypertension. According to the patient's medical history and laboratory test results.

Divided into acute glomerulonephritis, chronic glomerulonephritis and occult nephritis. There are many causes of nephritis. The nephritis mentioned here usually refers to primary glomerulonephritis, a small part of which is secondary.

04 How to nourish and protect the kidney?

First of all, we should actively participate in physical exercise, enhance our physical fitness, keep enough sleep, and avoid staying up late. Usually, the diet must be balanced, with meat and vegetables, and avoid spicy, cold, fat, sweet, and greasy foods to reduce the burden on the gastrointestinal tract; eat more black foods, such as black rice, black beans, black fungi, kelp, black sesame, etc.

Men and women are the same. For the kidney essence, we should pay attention to solidification and not overindulge, which will cause great damage to the kidney essence. The waist is the home of the kidneys, and the function of the kidneys is largely reflected in the waist, so it is very important to protect the waist. For example, you should keep warm in winter, don’t live in the wetland for a long time, and don’t lie on the cool ground, so as to prevent the cold evil from causing damage to the kidney yang.
