What are the white particles in baby diaper wet wipes

Patient's question:

I am 36 years old this year, and recently I've been feeling unwell. During the day, I sometimes feel dizzy, and it has also affected my work. I can't sleep at night, and the medicine I took isn't very effective. Could you please tell me what the white particles in infant diaper wetters are?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, normal urine contains many crystalline and non-crystalline substances. Your condition falls under the category of urine forming crystals over time, which is generally a normal phenomenon. However, clinically, it can be divided into physiological and pathological cases. Physiological crystals mostly come from normal metabolic byproducts of food and body salts, combined with ions such as calcium, magnesium, and ammonium to form various inorganic and organic salts, also known as metabolic salt crystals. These usually have no clinical significance.
