Yellow urine in men

The color of urine is affected by many factors, such as the amount of water people drink in their daily lives. Many men often encounter the problem of yellow urine. If the urine is simply yellow and there are no other special symptoms, there is generally no need to worry too much. This situation is not necessarily caused by pathological factors. So what is the reason for yellow urine in men?

1. The yellowish color of urine may be related to the usual diet and the amount of water you drink. Male friends who don’t like to drink water will have less urine, and the increase in the content of urine pigment will cause the urine color to turn yellow. If you drink more water on a normal basis, the color of your urine will be colorless. If you like to eat some foods with heavy pigments and acidic foods, your urine will also be darker. If you like to eat alkaline foods, your urine will be lighter. The yellow urine caused by these reasons is a normal physiological phenomenon and a short-term phenomenon. You don’t need to worry too much. You can adjust it through diet and drinking more water.

2. Yellow urine will also appear when there are symptoms of urinary tract infection, but it will be accompanied by urinary irritation symptoms such as urgency, frequent urination, pain when urinating, back pain, chills, fever, etc. If this symptom occurs, it is recommended to go to the urology department of a regular comprehensive hospital as soon as possible. It is recommended to complete blood routine, blood inflammation index, urine routine, urine culture plus drug sensitivity test and urinary system B-ultrasound and other tests to evaluate the condition under the guidance of a doctor. If the yellow urine is confirmed to be caused by urinary tract infection, it is recommended to select sensitive antibiotics such as cephalosporins or quinolone drugs such as levofloxacin for anti-infection treatment according to the drug sensitivity results of urine culture under the guidance of a doctor. At ordinary times, you should pay attention to drinking more water, urinating frequently, maintaining local hygiene, and avoiding eating spicy and other irritating foods.

3. If the urine is yellow, like the color of strong tea, you must be alert, as this is a signal that there is a problem with the liver. In addition, inflammation, stones, and tumors in the gall duct inside and outside the liver can also cause the urine to turn yellow. If the urine is yellow for a long time, you must be alert to whether you have other symptoms, such as fatigue, upper abdominal discomfort, and jaundice. You should go to the hospital for a liver examination in time.
