Normal urine is usually straw colored. But what if the urine has a darker, even brown color for a long time? This may indicate that your body is developing a serious illness. Better not to take it lightly. Here is the reason.
What does the color of your urine say about your health?
Although it may seem that the color of urine is not very important, it is completely different. The appearance of the urine tells us a lot about our health. As already mentioned, normal urine is usually straw yellow in color. If it is even transparent, it could in turn mean that you are drinking too much fluid or that your body is developing diabetes. Dark urine tends to occur in people who are dehydrated.
Keep in mind that urine can take different colors depending on what you eat. For example, if we eat beetroot or carrots, the urine becomes more orange in color. Sometimes it is also black, which can scare some people. It simply means that there is too much iron in your body.

What should alert you? First of all, when there is blood in the urine. In this case, you should immediately consult a doctor who will order basic tests. Thanks to them, he will be able to make a diagnosis. Blood in urine does not always mean the worst. Sometimes it’s a result of too much exercise or a side effect of medication. Unfortunately, it is sometimes also the case that blood in the urine is a symptom of kidney cancer or a venereal disease (for example, gonorrhea).
Kidney cancer symptoms
Kidney cancer very often does not make itself felt for a long time. At an early stage, it is detected in only 25-40 percent. patients, most often during routine examinations. This is the case, inter alia, because its few symptoms are underestimated by patients. They can be confused with other minor diseases and infections. What should worry us? Here are some symptoms that may indicate your body is developing kidney cancer:
- high blood pressure
- night sweats
- back pain
- recurring urinary tract infections,
- permanent feeling of fatigue,
- weight loss.
However, the basic symptom of kidney cancer is a change in the color of the urine to a much darker color. In the beginning, the amount of blood in the urine is negligible, so it is difficult to see with the naked eye. However, our urine will be brown or dark brown by then.
