Why do I keep peeing?

If you keep urinating, you need to rule out physiological reasons first. If you have been drinking water, eating watermelon, drinking beer, etc. frequently recently, urinating is a normal physiological phenomenon. Excluding physiological reasons, the constant urge to urinate may be caused by bacterial infection of the urinary tract, which requires treatment with urethral anti-inflammatory drugs. This article focuses on the causes and nutritional prevention and treatment methods of urinary urges, and provides a treatment diet to alleviate the condition from the inside out.

1. Staying up late: Staying up late frequently will often consume the body's energy and easily cause symptoms of kidney deficiency.

2. Excessive sexual intercourse: If sexual intercourse is too frequent and too intense, it will consume a lot of human energy, which will undoubtedly increase the burden on the kidneys and will lead to kidney deficiency over time.

3. Sitting for a long time: Sitting for a long time without moving can easily lead to kidney deficiency. Many women's jobs require them to sit in the office all day and rarely move around, which is very unhealthy.

4. Zinc and selenium deficiency can also cause kidney deficiency: Kidney deficiency is closely related to the dysfunction of the neuroendocrine system. Zinc and selenium deficiency will affect the function of the endocrine glands, and will cause kidney deficiency in the long run.

5. Excessive smoking and drinking: Frequent and excessive smoking and drinking can cause severe kidney deficiency. Drinking and smoking in large quantities for a long time can cause great harm to the body and will eventually lead to kidney deficiency.

6. Excessive mental stress: Women are prone to excessive anxiety and excessive mental tension in the workplace. Moreover, the pace of modern life is fast. If you are anxious for a long time, it is easy to cause symptoms of kidney deficiency.

Causes

1. Increased urine volume: When urine volume increases, the frequency of urination will also increase accordingly. Under physiological conditions, such as drinking a lot of water, eating watermelon, and drinking beer, due to the increase in water intake, the urine volume increases through the regulation and filtering function of the kidneys, and the frequency of urination also increases, resulting in frequent urination. Under pathological conditions, such as some patients with diabetes and diabetes insipidus, they drink a lot of water, urinate a lot, and urinate frequently, but they do not feel any discomfort when urinating.

2. Inflammatory stimulation: When there is inflammation in the bladder, the urinary center is in an excited state, resulting in frequent urination and reduced urine volume. Therefore, frequent urination is an important symptom of cystitis, especially in acute cystitis and tuberculous cystitis. Other conditions such as prostatitis, urethritis, pyelonephritis, chronic balanoposthitis in children, and vulvitis can also cause frequent urination. Under the stimulation of inflammation, frequent urination, urgency and pain often occur at the same time, which is called urinary tract irritation syndrome, commonly known as "triuria".

3. Non-inflammatory stimulation: such as urinary stones and foreign bodies, usually with frequent urination as the main manifestation.

4. Reduced bladder capacity: such as bladder space-occupying lesions, compression from the enlarged uterus during pregnancy, tuberculous bladder contracture, or large bladder stones.

5. Psychoneural frequent urination: Frequent urination only occurs during the day or before falling asleep at night. It is often caused by mental tension or occurs in patients with hysteria. This may also be accompanied by urinary urgency and pain.

Nutritional prevention

1. Properly control salt intake to help the kidneys retain water.

2. You can drink boiled water with light salt and low-concentration sugar water, but do not drink large amounts of high-calorie beverages to prevent excessive calorie intake from causing rapid weight gain.

3. People who urinate frequently lose more potassium in their bodies and should supplement with potassium-rich foods, such as mushrooms, cabbage, beans, peanuts, walnuts, watermelons, bananas, etc.
