Why is the child's urine white?

When children are young, their urination will be affected by their diet. If children often eat some liquid food, they will urinate more frequently. If they eat more complementary food, they will urinate less. However, you should also pay attention to letting your baby drink more water. If the baby lacks water in the body, the baby's urine may be yellow. So what is the matter with the child's white urine?

The color of the baby's urine is normal when urinating, but if the urine is left for a few minutes, it will quickly turn white and turbid. Why is this?

It turns out that urine contains a variety of salt substances. After these substances are excreted from the body, the cold weather will cause the urine composition to change, causing the previously fully dissolved salts to precipitate; and the precipitated urate accumulates at the bottom or suspends in the urine, causing the urine to turn white and turbid.

Especially in cold seasons, it is normal for baby's urine to be white and turbid.

In fact, inorganic salt urine is harmless to the baby's body, so no treatment is needed. The mother only needs to change the baby's food composition to change the acidity and alkalinity of the urine, so that crystals will not precipitate and the color of the urine will return to normal. If the child has no other discomfort, there is no need to worry. The white urine when just waking up is due to excessive deposition of urate, which makes the urine turbid and white. Also pay attention to whether the child has eaten too much high-fat food.

The milky white urine of children is not necessarily related to the kidneys. It is mostly caused by the increase of certain components in the urine and precipitation. For example, when children eat foods containing oxalate and carbonate, such as green leafy vegetables such as spinach and amaranth, or fruits such as bananas, oranges and persimmons, the salt in the urine increases. When these substances are excreted from the body with urine, they will be excreted with carbonates or phosphates and other salts crystallized when exposed to cold, making the urine turbid. This situation is mainly seen in cold seasons. If careful parents can heat and boil the turbid urine, the urine will become clear and the truth will be revealed. Generally, this kind of urine is not harmful to the health of children. As long as you pay attention to replenishing water for your children or taking some vitamin C orally, the rice-washing water-like urine will disappear naturally after a few days.
