In daily life, many people come across the question: Why is there a foam in urination? Does foam in urine indicate a kidney problem?
Normal fresh urine is clear and transparent, light yellow or amber. The color of urine varies according to the concentration of urine.
Under normal circumstances, urine seldom forms foam. Only when the urine flow is large, a little foam can be formed due to the impact force, but these foam will disappear quickly after the urine is still.
There are many reasons for men to have foam in their urine, sometimes it is a normal phenomenon: if men have semen in their urethra, it can cause foam urine. Such as retrograde ejaculation, frequent excitations increase the mucus secreted by the bulbar gland of the urethra, and after ejaculation. When urinating too quickly, the urine will strongly impact the liquid level. When air and urine are mixed together, it is easy to form foam, but it is easier to dissipate. In addition, if you stand too high when urinating, under the action of gravity, the urine will have a greater impact on the liquid surface, which is also easy to form foam.
Another reason why men have more foam in their urine is prostatitis: if prostatitis causes more white foam in their urine, it will also show bladder irritation, such as frequency of urination, burning and pain of the urethra during urination and radiating to the head of the penis. In the morning, there may be secretions such as mucus at the urethral orifice, and the feeling of urination difficulty may also occur. The discomfort of falling and swelling of the posterior urethra, perineum and anus, and the swelling and pain of squatting, defecating and sitting on the chair and stool for a long time are aggravated.
Prostatitis is extremely harmful to the human body, so we should be vigilant. Since most of the foam in urine are also caused by prostatitis, we should not ignore it. Once such symptoms occur, we must go to a regular hospital for examination and symptomatic treatment, so as to achieve the goal of early treatment. Try to avoid the harm of disease to yourself to the greatest extent.
Most of them are caused by the surface tension of urine. The higher the surface tension, the more foam will be formed. In addition to most of the water, the urine of human body also contains a very small amount of foam. However, if the composition of urine changes, such as the amount of protein, mucus and organic substances increase, the surface tension will increase.
What are the symptoms of prostatitis related to urination?
1. After the occurrence of prostatitis, men will feel more pain in the local part of the perineum, especially in the mouth of the urethra and the perineum, which will worsen when urinating, and will cause radioactive pain scattered around. Severe patients and patients with chronic prostatitis will also have symptoms of low back pain.
2. If you suffer from prostatitis, you will also have the symptoms of white urethra. This is because the male prostate also has the function of secreting prostatic fluid. After the inflammation occurs, there will be more secretions, especially when you wake up in the morning, the male genitals will have erectile symptoms, and the urethral orifice will often produce a lot of secretions.
3. The male urinary system with prostatitis will also be greatly affected. Most patients will often have a series of symptoms such as endless urination, waiting for urination, frequent urination, urgent urination, painful urination, etc. in the process of urination, which will lead to hematuria and dysuria in patients.
It seems that there are many symptoms of prostatitis. Therefore, men should be checked and treated as soon as possible after the above discomfort symptoms occur, so as to avoid the difficulty of treatment of prostate hyperplasia after the condition is serious. In normal times, they should also actively prevent the occurrence and recurrence of prostatitis, such as more exercise, control weight, promote blood circulation, and also relieve the pressure of prostatitis hypertrophy.
