Patient's question:
Usually, I feel fine, but my urine has been the color of rice water for a while.Doctor's answer:
Hello, during early childhood, due to the needs of growth and development and high activity levels, metabolism is vigorous. Moreover, as temperatures begin to drop, the human body must enhance metabolism to maintain normal body temperature and organ function, thereby generating more energy. As a result, the amount of metabolic waste produced increases. Additionally, since sweating significantly decreases, the waste excreted through sweat also decreases, leading to an increase in waste excretion through urine. If a child's fluid intake is further reduced, it will significantly increase the burden on the kidneys, causing urine to become more concentrated and the waste in the urine to reach saturation.Guidance: If you encounter this situation, do not panic. It is recommended to encourage the child to drink more boiled water. If fluid intake remains insufficient for a long time, leading to an imbalance where intake does not meet the body's needs, the burden on the kidneys will inevitably increase, which is detrimental to the child's health.
