Many elderly people complain that the older they get, the more frequent they urinate, especially at night, because they can't sleep well, mainly because they get up frequently at night and frequent urination interferes with rest. Today, let's talk about why the elderly urinate frequently at night. How to solve it?
First: physiological reasons
If you drink too much water before going to bed at night, or eat more liquid food, such as beer and watermelon, these will lead to an increase in urine output. This is because drinking too much water, under the dual function of the kidney's regulating ability and filtering ability, the urine volume will naturally increase, so the number of urination at night will increase, which will lead to frequent urination at night.
Experts tell us that under normal circumstances, drinking eight glasses of water a day is enough for your health. If you consume too much water, it will increase the excretion pressure of the kidneys and lead to accelerated aging of organs. In addition, experts also remind the elderly that it is best not to drink a lot of water after 6 pm. After thirty, we need to control the amount of water we drink at night.
Second: Female premature senility and frequent urination.
The main symptoms of this frequent micturition are frequent micturition at night, urinary incontinence and even urinary incontinence. Experts tell us that the main reason why elderly women get up frequently at night is the change of hormone levels in the body. After the age of 35, women's ovarian function declines, and at this time, the level of estrogen in the body also declines. After the age of 40, the level of estrogen in the body is about a quarter of that in adolescence. Especially in postmenopausal women, the hormone level in the body has lost its regulation, and the aging speed in the body is accelerating, so the aging of the bladder is inevitable. Bladder is an important valve for the discharge of body fluids in the body, which needs to be realized by the up-and-down movement of muscles. If there is a problem with the muscle movement of the bladder, it will lead to urinary incontinence and frequent urination.
Third: the causes of male prostate diseases.
This disease mainly appears in men, and the symptom is pathological frequent urination, which is also a disease that makes many men miserable. Statistics show that nearly half of men over the age of 50 suffer from prostatic hyperplasia. Experts tell us that the disease of prostatic hyperplasia is mainly caused by the disturbance of hormone balance in the elderly, and the main symptom is prostatic hyperplasia and hypertrophy.
What should the elderly do if they urinate frequently at night?
Frequent urination at night is very common among the elderly, which brings great inconvenience to their lives and does great harm to their health. Therefore, if this symptom occurs in daily life, we must take scientific solutions to treat it and restore our health. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the main reason for frequent urination at night is due to insufficient kidney qi. Therefore, in order to solve the problem of frequent urination, we must take measures from two aspects: tonifying kidney and tonifying deficiency, so that the body can recover quickly. The specific method is as follows:
First: What about kidney-yang deficiency?
The main symptoms of kidney-yang deficiency are increased urination times and excessive urination at night, accompanied by soreness of waist and knees, cold stomach and cold hands and feet. At this time, if you want to restore your health, you must adopt the method of warming and tonifying kidney and yang.
Second: What about spleen and kidney deficiency?
At this time, the main symptoms are frequent urination, increased urine volume, shortness of breath, and weakness of limbs, which not only makes the waist and knees weak, but also reduces daily food intake and thin stools. At this time, the method of strengthening spleen and tonifying kidney should be adopted.
Traditionally, people with kidney deficiency should eat turtle meat, pigeon meat, pork, soft-shelled turtle, gecko, lotus seeds, pine nuts, shepherd's purse, leek, royal jelly, Ganoderma lucidum, bird's nest, donkey-hide gelatin, placenta Hominis, Rehmannia glutinosa, Cynomorium songaricum, cistanche deserticola and so on.
Tonifying the kidney, a term in Chinese medicine, refers to changing the state of kidney deficiency through diet, medicine tonic, fitness exercise, qigong, acupuncture and massage. Chinese medicine believes that kidney deficiency can be divided into kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency, and different diagnosis and treatment should be carried out according to different symptoms. Kidney deficiency is mostly a long-term accumulation of diseases, so tonics or drugs with unknown ingredients should not be used to tonify kidney and strengthen yang because of eagerness for success. Take time to recuperate.
Chinese medicine recommends Jinkui Shenqi Pill and Baizhi Dihuang Pill.
Our traditional Chinese medicine preparation "Ruyi Yanghuanlu" can treat the symptoms and root causes of premature ejaculation. It can take effect on the same day, lasting for 3 ~ 15 days or even longer (in the following days, the degree of sexual sensation is much better than usual), which can improve sperm motility in time and quickly and obviously enhance the fertility of young adults; After three or two days, the sperm motility can be obviously improved, and the results of several semen tests can be compared. It is usually taken for three months in a row, and it is common for a wife to get pregnant during taking it. More than 30 years of clinical practice has proved that it can also effectively relieve hypertension, prostate and other related discomfort symptoms in middle-aged and elderly people. It is especially suitable for the promotion and rapid recovery of sexual function of middle-aged and elderly people.
At the end of 1980s, one of China's earliest works on andrology, Prescriptions for andrology 10 1, included my core prescriptions and explanations. In the past 30 years, the clinical effect has been remarkable. As I often say, "There are no bad dishes, only bad chefs." Technology first! The key is to solve the problem!
Zhang Ming Xie Bin said in "The Eight Treasures of Jing Yue Quan Shuxin Fang": "Those who are good at tonifying Yang must seek Yang in Yin, and then Yang will be helped by Yin and will be endless; Those who are good at nourishing yin must seek yin in the middle, and yin is born in the yang, and the source is inexhaustible. " Based on the theory of mutual root of yin and yang, kidney-water-life gate and so on. This is a tonic method proposed by Zhang Jingyue to treat kidney-yang deficiency and kidney-yin deficiency. This language is valued by later doctors in nourishing yin and tonifying yang and guiding clinical practice, so it is necessary for us to study and understand it carefully, and strive to inherit and carry it forward for our use.
