What causes children's urine to smell bad?

Some parents may find that their children's urine smells bad in the summer. Generally speaking, this happens because the child is getting too hot or is not drinking enough water. Because in summer, water evaporates very quickly and needs to be replenished in time.

Urine tends to smell bad in summer. It is very hot in summer and you will sweat profusely as soon as you do the slightest activity. To cope with the large amount of water lost from the sweat glands, the kidneys must concentrate the urine to conserve water, so the urine becomes more concentrated and the amount of urine becomes less. In addition, hot and humid skin also makes it easy for bacteria to grow on the skin, which can easily cause urinary tract diseases.
