​Anti-inflammatory medicine urine foam

Normally when going to the toilet, people seldom observe their urination problems. However, some people will find that there is always a layer of foam floating on the urine. This kind of foam will make people puzzled and they don’t know what is going on. In fact, the foam in the urine is due to the increase of protein or bilirubin, so it will appear after checking the condition and then treating it with anti-inflammatory drugs.

Cause

1. In case of liver and kidney diseases, the bilirubin or protein content in urine increases, the surface tension of urine decreases, and more bubbles may be produced during urination;

2. Bladder diseases such as cystitis, bladder cancer, etc., or other urinary tract infections can easily change the composition of urine and produce bubbles;

3. In diabetes, the content of urine sugar or urine ketone bodies increases, the acidity and alkalinity of urine changes, and the surface tension of urine decreases; organic substances (glucose) and inorganic substances (various mineral salts) in urine can also increase the tension of urine and cause foam to appear, but this foam is generally large and disappears quickly. Diabetic patients are prone to foamy urine due to increased blood sugar and secondary increased urine sugar.

4. When there are gas-producing bacteria in the urinary tract, bubbles may appear in the urine; urinary tract infection can cause increased foam in the urine. Common ones include urinary tract infection, cystitis, prostatitis, etc., most of which are accompanied by symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and pain when urinating.

5. Couples who have been separated for a long time and have stopped having sex for too long; those who are frequently sexually excited will have more bubbles in the urine due to the increased mucus secreted by the bulbourethral glands and the reduced surface tension of the urine. In addition, when urination is urgent, the urination pressure increases, the urination rate increases, the surface tension of the urine decreases, and an increase in bubbles can also be seen.

6. Urine bilirubin, the urine changes to soybean oil-like state, and yellow foam appears after shaking and is not easy to disappear. It is common in obstructive jaundice and hepatocellular jaundice.

The presence of semen components in the urethra: If a man has semen components in his urethra, it can cause foamy urine. Such as retrograde ejaculation (common in patients with diabetes and autonomic dysfunction); frequent sexual excitement increases the secretion of mucus by the bulbourethral glands, and nocturnal emission, etc.

7. Urinating too quickly: When urinating too quickly, the urine hits the liquid surface with great force, and the air and urine mix together, easily forming foam, but it is easier to dissipate. In addition, if you stand too high when urinating, the urine will have a greater impact on the liquid surface under the action of gravity, and it will easily form foam.

8. Urine concentration: When drinking too little water, sweating too much, diarrhea, etc., the human body will concentrate urine due to lack of water, resulting in higher concentrations of protein and other components in the urine, which can easily lead to increased foam in the urine.

9. Proteinuria: Abnormally high protein content in urine is one of the most common causes of foamy urine and is also an important clinical manifestation of various diseases, especially kidney disease. Various primary kidney diseases, such as various primary glomerulonephritis, and various secondary kidney damages, such as diabetes, hypertension, gout, hepatitis, etc., can all lead to kidney damage and increased protein in the urine. In cases of multiple myeloma, acute intravascular hemolysis, leukemia, etc., although the renal function is normal, a large amount of abnormal protein appears in the blood and protein leaks into the urine, forming proteinuria.
