Patient's question:
The baby is more than six months old. Previously, the baby's urine was normal, but recently I noticed that the urine contains a yellowish color. Is this related to what the baby is eating? The baby is currently drinking formula milk, could it be a problem with the formula milk? If not, what could be the reason? What kind of assistance is needed: Hello, what causes the baby's urine to turn yellow and how can it be treated well?Doctor's answer:
When the ambient temperature drops, the child may experience sweating and increased non-evaporative water loss again. If the child drinks less water, it may lead to yellow urine, which is a self-regulating response by the kidneys. It could be caused by a urinary tract infection, or there may also be a possibility of jaundice. It is best to check a urinalysis, blood test, and liver function tests for diagnosis before treatment. Drink more water, rest more, and pay attention to hygiene in the private area.
