Although the kidney is in the end of the five internal organs, its role is the most important.Experts and professors gave reporters an analogy: If the kidney is metaphorized to a "boiler", the "corn" (metabolites) generated after the body burns must be discharged through the boiler.
Once a problem with the "boiler", the waste cannot be discharged, not only will it damage the "boiler", but the entire system will also collapse.
Experts told reporters that the kidney has three major functions. One is to generate urine and maintain the balance of water."There are about 1.3 million glomerular balls per kidney in the human body. It can filter and clean 200 liters of blood every day, which is equivalent to 10 barrels of drinking water to form a urine of about 1.8 liters.The urine volume is adjusted to keep the water balance in the body. "Second, the human body's metabolites and toxic substances."Human metabolism can produce metabolic waste, such as urea, uric acid, creatinine, etc. The kidneys are excreted from the body from urine to maintain normal physiological activities." Third, endocrine function.Such as secreting red blood cells to promote bone marrow hematopoietic; generate active vitamin D to regulate calcium and phosphorus metabolism, maintain the normal structure and function of the bones; secrete vascular active substances regulate blood pressure.
See the kidney problem from urination
It is precisely because the kidney has these three major functions that when the kidney has a problem, there will be problems with other parts of the body.Academician Chen Xiangmei said that the early days of kidney disease were fatigue, fatigue, swelling of the eyelids, pale faces, and a large amount of foam in urine, pain or difficulty in urination.Next, there will be loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting, low back pain, increased nighturicuria, general edema, increased blood pressure, pheasant urine, bone pain, skin itching, muscle tremor, numbness of hands and feet, slow response, etc.If it is severe, the above -mentioned symptoms continue to increase, and at the same time, it will cause multiple organs such as the heart, liver, and lungs.
Common symptoms of abnormal urination
1. Urine effort: The urethra is obstructed, and the resistance of urine excretion will increase. We must increase the abdominal pressure to overcome the urination resistance, so the urination effort can be used.
2. The urine line (flow) becomes thinner: Due to the weakened urination capacity, the urine line becomes thinner, especially the adrenal hyperplasia makes the edge of the urethral mouth unrealistic, which seriously affects the urine line.
3. Frequent urination: The early signal of the most obvious early signs is the increase in the number of nighturia, and the number of urinary tract obstruction gradually increases.
4. Uncomfortable urine: After urination, there is a pain in the urethra or dripping from the original pouring, dripping urine, or discomfort in the lower abdomen.These do not belong to the physiological feeling after normal people's urination.
5. Urine change: Some patients have broken blood vessels due to the congestion of the prostate or the expansion of the vascular dilatation of the prostate. At this time, hematuria can be seen.Some patients may occur with urinary tract infections due to urinary tract obstruction and urinary flow block, which can occur with hypertrophy.
