What does foam in urine mean! can protein in urine be high even if cretanine is ok. what can be done to lower protein. thanks.

Big picture: Most foam on the urine is mucin and means nothing. Most mild to moderate priteinuria is from being a person who gets protein in the urine from standing up and is a non-problem. Your physician can sort this out.

Urine: appearance is variable. A urinalysis is needed for measurement of protein, sugar, blood etc.
