What is the cause of white urine in children?

Generally speaking, human urine is colorless or light yellow under normal circumstances. When the color of urine changes, it means that the health of the body is beginning to change. Perhaps many people have encountered such a situation, where their urine inexplicably appears white or milky white. What is going on here?

Normal urine is colorless or light yellow and transparent. If the urine appears white, such as rice water, lime water or milk-like white turbid urine, the cause should be investigated. There are three common clinical cases of leukoplakia:

1. Crystalluria: The urine is white, like lime water, and often appears at the end of urine. Those with white urine may experience slight discomfort in the urethra and occasionally renal colic. Normal urine contains many organic or inorganic substances, which are generally in a dissolved state, so the urine is clear and transparent. If the content of these substances is high and saturated, they will precipitate and form crystalluria. Crystalluria is not a disease. As long as you pay attention to drinking plenty of water and maintain sufficient urine volume, it will not occur.

2. Pururia: The urine is white, like rice water. There are often flocs suspended in the solution, and after standing still there are more white precipitates. This type of white urine is often accompanied by symptoms such as urgency, frequency, pain, difficulty urinating, back pain, and fever. Diseases that may cause pyuria include renal tuberculosis, pyonephrosis, or urinary tract infection caused by obstruction or foreign bodies. At this time, the patient should go to the hospital for further examination to determine the site and cause of infection and receive targeted treatment.

3. Chylous urine: The urine is white, like milk, sometimes mixed with white clots or blood. When you are tired or eat high-fat food, the urine will be obviously white. When you rest or eat low-fat food, the urine will become lighter or clear. This symptom means that there is a lesion in the lymphatic vessels in the body. Lymphangiography can be used to determine the location of the lesion.

I believe that everyone will be inspired by the article we introduced today about what white urine is. Changes in the body need close attention. Once they exceed the normal range, you need to go to the hospital for examination or treatment in time. It is recommended that everyone pay more attention to their physical health, pay attention to a balanced diet and do not overwork.
