The first "Urinary Health Day" launched in Beijing

Initiated by Professor Guo Yinglu, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and a famous urological expert, the launching ceremony of my country's first "6·16 Urinary Health Day" was held grandly in Beijing on the 16th, aiming to call on more people to pay attention to and pay attention to urinary health.

In 2014, a public urinary health survey launched by Guilin Sanjin and NetEase showed that among nearly 200,000 respondents, 57.3% had symptoms of frequent urination, urgency, and painful urination, but they went to the hospital in time. Only 29% of patients seek medical treatment, and 19.1% do not take any treatment, resulting in various urinary system diseases. In this regard, Academician Guo Yinglu called on the public to pay great attention to this, reduce bad habits such as sitting for long periods of time, holding in urine, drinking less water, and staying up late, and stay away from urinary diseases such as urinary tract infections and chronic prostatitis.
