A member asked:

I have a small bit of foamy bubbles in a small patch when i urinate, is this normal? i have had uti about an year ago.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Frothy urine: Foamy bubbles in the urine is usually normal and is not a symptom of a urinary tract infection which is usually associated with discolored or smelly urine. Rarely, excess protein in the urine can manifest as foamy bubbles.
