Question
When I check the baby’s diaper, I find some white particles inside. What are these white particles?
Answer
Urine contains various crystalline and amorphous substances. These white particles are typically crystalline materials found in urine, which come from acidic products formed by the normal metabolism of food and body salts, combined with ions such as calcium, magnesium, and ammonium to form inorganic and organic salts. This phenomenon is common in urine and is usually normal. However, in some cases, these crystals may be associated with health issues, so it is recommended to consult a healthcare professional for a more accurate diagnosis.
