Elderly people urinate more than recommended to go to the hospital for further examination, whether it is increased urine volume or increased frequency of urination, and decide how to treat after the examination, possible causes: 1, such as increased urine volume in the elderly, it may be related to the concentration function of the kidneys, resulting in the circulation of body fluids after the kidneys without concentration, back absorption, resulting in a large amount of water out of the body, which can be manifested as increased urine volume, such as renal tubular disease or renal tubular acidosis, etc., can lead to Increased urine volume. 2, if the frequency of urination increases, you may suffer from urinary tract infection or prostatic hyperplasia, when infection occurs patients can have obvious symptoms of urinary frequency, urinary urgency, painful urination, or even fever, and need to retain urine for bacterial culture examination. If there is an increase in the frequency of urination without painful urination, back pain, fever, etc., it may be caused by prostatic hyperplasia, as the gland protrudes into the bladder cavity after prostatic hyperplasia, stimulating the bladder triangle and causing the patient to urinate frequently; or there is too much residual urine in the bladder, so it takes several urinations to empty the bladder.
