A member asked:
If i have foamy urine doesn't that mean excess of protein build up? does it mean diabetes or kidney probs? is it normal

Could be: It is a possibility that excess proteins cause this. You should see your primary care doctor that can run a quick urine dipstick and check for proteins, glucose, leucocytes, blood .Hope it helps, good luck :).
