The kidneys are one of the important organs of the human body, and their main function is to filter waste products and excess water from the blood, and form urine to be excreted from the body. Therefore, the amount of urine produced is closely related to the filtration function of the kidneys.
In general, healthy kidneys can quickly filter out the water after drinking water, form urine, and excrete it from the body. This phenomenon is considered a normal physiological response and indicates that the kidneys are able to effectively remove waste products and excess water. However, when there are problems with kidney function, such as glomerulonephritis, pyelonephritis, or kidney stones, the amount of urine after drinking water may not increase or even decrease. This is because the kidneys' filtration function is impaired and they are unable to filter water and waste products effectively, resulting in a condition in which urine production is reduced.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, increased urine after drinking water usually means that the kidneys are functioning well. However, if there is too much or too little urine, or if it is accompanied by other abnormal symptoms (such as low back pain, high blood pressure, edema, etc.), you should see a doctor in time for relevant tests to confirm the diagnosis and undergo it**. To know if the kidneys are functioning healthily, in addition to looking at the urine, we can also tell by other symptoms.
Common symptoms of kidney problems include fatigue, weakness, loss of appetite, high blood pressure, abnormal urine, low back pain, anemia, etc. In addition, kidney problems may also manifest as headaches, insomnia, itching, and other symptoms. Understanding kidney function and associated symptoms is essential for maintaining good health.
When we notice any abnormal symptoms, we should seek medical attention in time for relevant tests to assess the health of our kidneys. By paying attention to urine manifestations and other symptoms, we can better understand the health of our kidneys, detect problems in time, and take appropriate measures to maintain the normal function of the body.
