All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, if creatinine and eGFR are normal, do not be concerned about urea level. Drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless. Wish you good health!
