Question 9

what causes white flakes in urine?

Accepted Answer

Urine: Usually precipitates of salts with the changes in acidity from the bladder to the toilet.  If these "flakes" are in the urine without being seen in the toilet, then you should take a specimen to your doctor and have them look at it.  Without seeing this it is very difficult to tell what it might be.

Question 10

what causes black specs in my urine?

Accepted Answer

Black specs: The most likely cause of black specs in the urine would be tiny fragments of kidney or urinary bladder stones. A urinalysis with microscopic examination would be helpful in identifying objects in your urine. Straining all your urine in a white handkerchief would trap the specs which can be brought to a laboratory for identification.
