Patient's question:
My child is six years old. Recently, I occasionally noticed a smell of mouse urine in the urine. Is it serious?Doctor's answer:
If there is a mouse-like odor in the urine, it is first important to consider the possibility of phenylketonuria. This is a congenital disease. Medical advice: However, if the child is generally normal in various aspects, then the likelihood of this disease is not very high. It is recommended that you go directly to the pediatric department of the hospital for examination, such as urinalysis, blood tests, etc., in order to be able to deal with it early.
