Why does a man urinate with blood?

What do you do first thing in the morning? I believe that 99% of men will choose to "urinate". It is not only a "byproduct" of human metabolism, but also a barometer of our health. If one day, we wait for morning urine as usual, and suddenly find that the color of urine is as deep red as soy sauce, that is, there is blood in the urine, then it must be abnormal. Why does a man urinate with blood?

So, what do the different states of urine mean?

1. Turbid urine: pay attention to identification

When urine is cloudy and milky white, the first thing that comes to mind is infection. Indeed, when there is an infection in the urinary system, the above situation will occur. If it is a more serious urethritis, there will be some purulent secretions in the urethra when you wake up in the morning. However, chyluria can also cause cloudy urine, which is milky white or rice soup-like.

In addition, after urination, sometimes cloudy milky white urine will appear, which is what we often call "white dripping". If it happens occasionally, don't be nervous, it may be due to excessive secretion of prostate fluid due to long-term non-ejaculation, resulting in overflow. If it happens more frequently, it may be a manifestation of prostatitis.

2. Red urine, urinary tract infection

Red urine is likely a symptom of urinary tract infection, such as urethritis, urinary stones, etc. If you have red urine and frequent urination, urgency, and pain when urinating, it is recommended to have a urinary system examination to avoid missing the best time for treatment.

Sometimes eating vegetables and fruits with natural pigments such as carrots can also make urine appear light red. However, this phenomenon is only temporary and will return to normal after drinking more water.

3. Blood in urine is definitely abnormal

If there is blood in the urine, it means that there must be something wrong with the body. However, since there is infection, stones, tumors, etc. in any part of the urinary system, hematuria will occur, and some systemic diseases can also cause hematuria. Therefore, the causes of hematuria are very complicated. Once hematuria occurs, go to the hospital as soon as possible to find out the cause and treat it accordingly, so as not to delay the best time for treatment.

4. Urine is yellow like strong tea: Pay more attention to liver problems

If your urine is yellow like purulent tea for a long time, it indicates that there is a problem with your liver. If there is inflammation, tumor, stones, etc. in the gall duct inside and outside the liver, it will cause the urine to turn yellow. If your urine is yellow for a long time, you must pay attention to whether there are other symptoms around you, such as jaundice, fatigue, upper abdominal discomfort and pain, etc., and do relevant liver examinations in time.

However, if the urine is yellow only once or twice, for a short period of time and without other discomfort, you can rest assured. Because the change in urine color is also related to the body's sweating, water intake, and diet. If you sweat a lot and drink less water, the color of your urine will also darken. In addition, when you just get up, the kidneys have accumulated urine from the whole night, so the color of your urine will be darker and the smell will be relatively stronger.
