Daily health care is essential to protect the safety of men's "waterway".
2. Eliminate invading pathogens
(1) Actively treat infectious diseases, such as tonsillitis, skin abscess or wound infection, cholecystitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, appendicitis, prostatitis, dental caries infection, sinusitis, etc. Administer sufficient medication and treat thoroughly to prevent bacteria from entering the urinary system through the bloodstream or lymphatic system, while simultaneously killing bacteria that have already invaded the urinary tract.
(2) Drink plenty of water to increase urine output, so that urine can continuously flush the urinary tract, expel bacteria and toxins as soon as possible, and keep the urinary tract clean.
3. Keep the vulva clean.
(1) Children over 1 year old, regardless of gender, should wear diaper pants and not sit on the ground to avoid infection of the vulva and urethra.
(2) Adults should wash their vulva once a day, change their underwear frequently, and wipe their anus from front to back after defecation to avoid bringing anal waste to the urethral opening.
(3) Avoid sitz baths. If you sit in a bathtub to bathe, dirty water can easily enter the urethra and cause infection.
4. Pay attention to sexual hygiene. Poor sexual hygiene is a common cause of urinary tract infections. Bacteria from the external genitalia and urethra of one partner can easily be transmitted to the other, and self-infection is also possible. Therefore, the external genitalia should be cleaned before sexual intercourse. If using contraceptives, they should be cleaned or disinfected. Urinate before and after intercourse. In addition, abstain from masturbation, especially with objects, to prevent urinary tract infections and injuries.
5. Actively participate in physical exercise. Strengthening physical exercise and improving physical fitness are important aspects of preventing urinary tract infections. Once infected, during the acute phase with fever and abnormal urine tests, bed rest is recommended. During the recovery period, moderate physical activity should be undertaken to avoid weakness and prolonged illness. The type of activity can vary from person to person, but it should not be excessively strenuous.
The continuation and inheritance of outdated traditional ideas have diminished men's attention to their own health, leading to today's health risks and suffering. The imbalance of yin and yang is not merely a description of social psychology, but a true reflection of men's current health status. Avoiding medical treatment is not the mark of a true man; take better care of yourself and don't let minor ailments escalate into major problems.
Early self-examination is recommended for urinary disorders involving the mixing of clear and cloudy urine.
In an article titled "Good Men Are from Hong Kong" published in a certain supplement, it was written:
"Women are like water, gentle as water. Women are like boats, drifting as boats. And a good man should be a harbor that welcomes boats."
Indeed, regardless of raging storms, towering waves, or flying sand and stones, even the most frail man will straighten his perhaps not-so-robust chest in those difficult times, wholeheartedly protecting the woman who is as gentle as water and as steadfast as a boat. In the deep harbor of manhood, there are the complaints of a woman when she is weary, the madness of her joy, the sorrow of her grievances, the unreasonable tantrums of her boredom, and many unpredictable "sudden events." Similarly, in this port of high throughput, countless disputes are cleansed and purified, resulting in a peaceful and tranquil sea.
Compared to the image of a port, men seem to prefer comparing themselves to the sea, not only for its capacity to embrace all rivers, but also for the pride and sense of honor men feel about their own physical characteristics. The moment of urination, the torrent-like flow makes a man feel as if he is in a vast ocean beneath him, occasionally rippling; during intercourse, male lubrication surges into a woman's body like a tidal wave, like rain after a long drought, infusing countless seeds of hope... Of course, men are not born synonymous with carefree confidence; some subtle details can instantly plunge even the most robust man into panic. In urology clinics, "Is cloudy urine a problem?" is one of the most frequently asked questions by men of different ages.
In fact, human urine is a liquid formed in the kidneys, filtered through the kidneys, and eventually excreted from the body. This waste contains a significant amount of salt, mostly phosphates and oxalates. The human body excretes up to 5 grams of salt in urine every day. Under normal circumstances, these salts are invisible to the naked eye; they dissolve in the urine, which appears clear.
However, under certain circumstances, concentrated salts in urine can cause it to become cloudy. For example, in hot summer weather with excessive sweating, or due to dietary factors that increase urinary salt levels, the salts precipitate out after urine is excreted because the outside temperature is lower than body temperature, resulting in cloudy urine. Similarly, children have a high metabolic rate and excrete more waste products through their kidneys. When they drink insufficient water and their urine volume decreases, the urine becomes more alkaline, making it easier for phosphate crystals to crystallize and precipitate, leading to cloudy urine. Additionally, excessive exercise or a diet high in meat and vegetables can cause excessive metabolism of oxalates and phosphates, resulting in salt crystals in the urine. These crystals accumulate in the bladder and are excreted during urination, sometimes appearing as cloudy, white urine resembling rice water. Therefore, cloudy urine is not necessarily a sign of illness; it can also be a physiological phenomenon. Careful observation of changes in urine is necessary for accurate diagnosis.
