In the daylily life, we may can find there is foamy in the urine. Most of the
people may think it is a normal phenomenon, so they always ignore that. But I
want tell you the foamy in urine may is a sign of the PKD. And it is necessary
for the PKD patients to know how to deal with the foamy in urine.
Your urinary system works with other organs to get rid of wastes and keep
chemicals and water in the body balanced. As an adult woman, you eliminate about
a quart and a half of urine each day, but the amount can vary depending on the
amount of fluid and food you've consumed and how much you lose through sweating
and breathing. Some medications can affect the quantity of urine your body
eliminates.
When your body uses proteins derived from the foods you eat, it creates a
waste product called urea that is carried in the bloodstream to the kidneys, two
bean-shaped organs approximately the size of fists. They are located just below
the rib cage near the middle of the back. Each kidney has about a million tiny
filtering units called nephrons, which remove urea from the blood.
A ball of small blood capillaries (a glomerulus) and a small tube called a
renal tubule comprise a nephron. The kidneys remove or return chemicals such as
phosphorus,potassium and sodium in quantities needed to maintain optimal blood
levels of these substances. Urea, water and other waste products create urine as
the substances move through the nephrons and down the kidney's renal
tubules.
The kidney also releases three vital hormones: erythropoietin which
stimulates production of red blood cells in bones; renin, a blood-pressure
regulator; and the active form of vitamin D, which maintains calcium levels in
bone.
Urine exits the kidneys through two thin tubes about eight to 10 inches long
called ureters, which carry the fluid to the bladder, a hollow muscular organ
that stores urine. Ureter muscles tighten and relax to pump urine downward and
away from the kidneys. The process is more or less continuous, with minute
quantities of urine emptying into the bladder about every 10 to 15 seconds. If
the urine gets stuck in the ureters or backs up, a kidney infection can
result.
