Doctor's answer:
Problem Analysis: Hello, frequent urination and drinking without absorption can be alleviated by eating more vegetables. A normal adult urinates 4 to 6 times during the day and 0 to 2 times at night. A significant increase in the frequency of urination is referred to as urinary frequency. Urinary frequency is a symptom, not a disease. It can be caused by various reasons, leading to an increase in urination frequency without pain, also known as frequent micturition. The causes of urinary frequency are numerous, including neurotic and psychological factors, post-illness weakness, parasitic diseases, etc. Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that urinary frequency is primarily due to a weak constitution in children, insufficient kidney qi, an inability of the bladder to hold urine, and improper transformation and discharge. Additionally, excessive fatigue, weakness in the spleen and lungs, where the upper cannot control the lower, and the earth (spleen) being weak and unable to control water, can lead to urinary frequency. Therefore, urinary frequency is often a sign of deficiency and requires nourishment. It is recommended to eat more plant-based foods rich in organic active alkaloids, reduce meat consumption, and increase vegetable intake.Based on your condition, constipation is a possibility, with the key issues being bowel habits and lifestyle. There is no specific remedy. It is essential to avoid spicy foods and maintain smooth, soft stools by establishing a regular bowel movement routine. When you feel the urge to urinate, you must go to the restroom immediately.
Suggestions: It is recommended to eat more vegetables, bananas, sweet potatoes, and honey daily. The body will surely improve. Fresh bamboo juice taken orally can be effective. Additionally, you can use glycerin or soap sticks inserted into the rectum to soften the stool and promote bowel movement. However, the actions must be gentle to prevent intestinal damage.
