What causes bifurcated urine in boys?

If a little boy's urine is forked, the first thing to do is to see whether it is occasional or occurs continuously for a long time. If it only happens occasionally, parents do not need to worry too much, as this is generally not a pathological factor. However, if a little boy's urine is forked for a long time, it may be a urinary tract disease, which needs to be taken seriously. It is best to take the child to the hospital for examination, especially considering the following factors.

Reasons for bifurcated urine in boys:

1. Forked urination after masturbation or sex is mainly because some semen remains in the urethra after ejaculation and the congestion of the corpus cavernosum has not completely disappeared, resulting in poor urine flow. In addition, the urethral sphincter becomes overly tense and spasms, which makes urination feel uncomfortable. It is a normal physiological reaction and there is no need to cause blind panic. This is a common cause of urine splitting when urinating.

2. Many people have forked urine when they wake up. This is because after a whole night of sleep, a large amount of urine accumulates in the bladder, causing high pressure in the bladder. The urine is discharged with great force, causing the shape of the urethral opening to temporarily change. When there is no urine or semen passing through the human urethra, it is like a collapsed water pipe. However, when urine passes through, there will be a short period of obstruction. In addition, drinking a lot of alcohol, sexual impulses, etc. can also cause prostate congestion, resulting in difficulty in urination and bifurcated urine stream. The above situations are all temporary changes in urination and there is no need to worry too much.

3. If bifurcated urination occurs frequently or for a long time, it may be related to urinary and reproductive system diseases, such as urethritis, prostatitis, etc. At this time, urine flow will be affected due to congestion, swelling and increased secretions in the urethra. Chronic inflammation can cause scarring, which can prevent urine from flowing out smoothly. In addition to bifurcated urine stream, this type of disease is often accompanied by symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and pain when urinating. In addition, urethral stones, or phimosis or foreskin that is too long can also cause narrowing of the external urethral opening.

prevention:

1. Enhance confidence, eliminate mental worries, and control sexual desire, but it is not advisable to force abstinence. Avoid alcohol and irritating foods, take a hot water sitz bath once a night, apply local physical therapy, and change obvious triggering factors in your life such as avoiding long periods of cycling.

2. Prostate massage: Regular prostate massage can promote the discharge of prostate inflammatory secretions. It should be done once a week. At the same time, routine examination of prostate fluid can also be performed to evaluate the treatment effect.
