What could foam in urine mean, and when should you consult a doctor?
Many people have noticed foam in their urine at some point, but they ignore it without much concern. People often think it’s normal, the result of forced urination, dehydration, or simply “something that always happens.” However, when this foam is abundant, persistent, and appears repeatedly, it could be a silent warning sign of kidney health.
Excessive foaming of the urine is no small problem. In medicine, it’s often a visible manifestation of a less obvious problem: protein loss through the kidneys.
