Patient's question:
Suffering from hemiplegia and prostatitis, catheterization for nearly two years, changing the catheter once a month. Now, there is an increase in cloudy urine, which blocks the catheter, making urination difficult. Sometimes the urine is blood-red. The catheter is often left open, and the bladder has almost lost its function. The elderly does not like to drink water. Once had a heart stent surgery, not recommended for leakage.Doctor's answer:
The appearance of this in the urine is caused by an increase in oxalates in the urine, which is not a problem if you drink more water; of course, it could also be caused by nephritis leading to an increase in protein in the urine. Drink more water and then check your urine. If there are no issues with the urine, then there is no problem. However, if protein is detected in the urine, it could be nephritis, and in that case, you should go to the hospital for systematic treatment.
