Dark urine is a condition where the urine appears significantly darker than the usual pale yellow color. This can be indicative of various health issues, ranging from mild dehydration to more serious conditions affecting the liver or kidneys.
Synonyms for this symptom include dark-colored urine and hyperchromic urine. A sub-symptom often associated with dark urine is scanty and dark urine, which refers to both the color and the reduced quantity of urine output.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) approaches dark urine as a sign of underlying imbalances within the body's energy systems. Unlike Western medicine, which often focuses on the symptom itself, TCM aims to identify and treat the root cause of the symptom.
Dark urine in TCM is usually seen as an indication of excess Heat or Dampness in the body, and the treatment strategy revolves around restoring balance and harmony to the affected organs and meridians.
