Urine is a very important excreta in the human body. Urine contains many components. Many people determine their health and whether they have a certain disease by checking their urine. Normal urine is actually light yellow and appears weakly acidic. If the composition of urine changes, it will appear abnormal, which can make your urine less normal.
The pH value of normal human urine is generally between 6.0-6.5, which is weakly acidic because the main components of urine are water, uric acid, urea, and some metabolic products, which are generally weakly acidic. Urine may be weakly alkaline in the following situations:
1. After inputting some alkaline drugs such as sodium bicarbonate;
2. Cystitis, especially purulent bladder fluid;
3. Urethritis, especially fungal urethritis and bacterial purulent urethritis;
4. When purulent glomerulonephritis, renal bleeding, bladder or urethral bleeding occur, it also appears alkaline;
5. Effects of certain foods or medications, such as medications used to treat liver disease.
Fresh urine discharged normally appears light yellow due to the presence of a yellow pigment in the urine. But the color of urine can also vary with the amount of water consumed. Drinking more water and urinating more will result in a smaller proportion of urinary pigments in the urine, leading to a lighter color; Drinking less water leads to a higher proportion of urinary pigments in the urine, resulting in a yellowish color.
Through the introduction in this article, it can be known that normal urine exhibits weak acidity. If you are a person whose urine appears alkaline, then you may have a physical problem.
