Question

Hello, doctor. I would like to ask, I go to the bathroom 20 times a day, and I often need to go frequently even after just a sip of water. Am I suffering from kidney disease? Do I need to see a doctor? My kidney examination last year was normal, but now I am very worried. What should I do? Thank you very much.

Answer

Hello. Frequent urination can be caused by various factors, including nervous and mental factors, post-sickness weakness, and parasitic diseases. Frequent urination is often a symptom of deficiency, and it requires nourishment. It is recommended to eat more foods rich in plant functional substances and less meat, while increasing vegetable intake.

  1. Urinary frequency caused by nervous factors usually manifests as varying frequencies at different times. This type of frequent urination caused by stress does not pose serious health consequences.
  2. It is necessary to check for bladder obstruction, stones, and other issues, which can be ruled out through ultrasound.
  3. It is necessary to exclude simple urinary frequency caused by urinary system inflammation.
  4. It is necessary to check for overactive bladder syndrome, which can be understood through urodynamic examination. For treatment, you can use Weixikang tablets, taken once daily with one tablet (5 mg) dissolved in water. It can be taken before or after meals.
