3 signs when you urinate that you may be ill

Normal urination for men should be completed within 1 minute. However, most people think that it is okay to urinate longer than the average person, and it is estimated that very few people seek medical treatment because of long urination time. In fact, urination is closely related to prostate health. Experts recommend that men over 40 years old can judge whether they have prostate problems by calculating their own urination time, such as whether they can empty their urine within 1 minute. Of course, there are some objective reasons that may lead to the inability to empty the urine within 1 minute, such as drinking a lot of water. There are many signs of prostate disease, such as urination continuity, whether urination is difficult, etc. Male friends can make judgments based on the following situations.

1. Urine easily leaks out

Have you ever had this experience? Whether it is day or night, you always have to go to the bathroom frequently to urinate. If you are a little slow, the urine will "rush out". When urinating, you have cramps in the lower abdomen or burning pain in the urethra. You should consider the possibility of prostate disease. The urination problem of patients with prostate disease is often progressive, and the symptoms are generally frequent urination, urgency, urination pain, and urge incontinence.

2. Small bubbles floating in the urine

If you find a layer of tiny bubbles floating on the surface of urine and it does not dissipate for a long time, this may indicate that men have prostatitis. Because prostatitis patients may carry prostatic fluid in their urine, there will be oil droplets on the surface of the urine, showing a state of "bubble urine" with many "small bubbles". If the bubbles are large or of different sizes and last for a short time, it is normal foam and there is no need to be nervous.

3. Unable to urinate

Patients with severe prostate disease may experience obstructive urination problems: hesitant urination, labored urination, thin urine stream, dribbling at the end of urine, etc. When the disease progresses to a more serious stage, more serious symptoms may appear. For example, sometimes when there are triggering factors such as cold, drinking, excessive urine retention, and taking certain medications, urine may suddenly become completely unable to be discharged, and the urine in the bladder accumulates more and more. This is called "acute urinary retention."

In addition, jobs that require holding urine for a long time are harmful to men's health. Holding urine can easily accelerate bladder aging, directly affect urination, cause urine to frequently remain in the bladder, and even induce urinary tract infection, cystitis or stones, hematuria, acute renal failure and other complications, and increase the chance of complications of prostatic hyperplasia. Therefore, in addition to paying attention to urination, try not to hold urine in normal times.
