What type of infection can cause high micro albumins?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Do you mean urine: Microalbumin? Any infection of the kidney, diabetes, tumors in the urinary system, vasculitis etc can increase the amount of Albumin in urine. Micro-albumin refers to low levels of Albumin in urine, below the detection limit of dip stick tests.
