I'm 22 years old female "I got a urine test done and the results showed amber-colored urine with positive turbidity, RBC, WBC, pus, mucus, hemoglobin, ketones, and squamous epithelial cells. I also got a contrast CT KUB done which came out normal, and a urine culture which was also normal. Today, I collected my morning urine in a container and when I touched it with my finger, I felt a white creamy substance. Now, my morning urine is milky and throughout the day, I see tiny bubbles in my urine that disappear quickly. If I drink water, I urinate every 10 minutes, three times, and each time I see tiny bubbles in my urine that form and disappear quickly. I don't have sugar and my urine culture is normal. What's the problem?"

It looks as though your signs may have something to do with some different reasons, like dehydration or what you are eating. Bubbles can indicate space in the urine or low protein levels that usually go with fluids. If it's not the color, but it's the clarity, then the urine looks suspicious. Dark urine, cloudiness, and substances like milk suggest problems with the urinary system. Yay to the clear points from the CT scan and urine culture, but just to be on the safe side, I would advise a follow-up visit to a urologist.

My mother is a chronic kidney disease patient, with creatinine levels fluctuating between 3 and 5.5. Her feet swell if she consumes raw salt directly, but the swelling only occurs in one foot at a time. Her hemoglobin levels are stable. Occasionally, she experiences electrolyte imbalances, which happen about once a year. She also faces recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs). Her blood pressure is 130/85, but during winter, it can rise to 190/100, although this happens for a maximum of 1-2 days.

Your mother's creatinine levels indicate that her kidney operation needs to be carefully managed. If feet are swollen, especially after salt intake, say 'fluid retention', which can be seen in kidney disease, is the main problem. Hemoglobin, which varies, is a good sign, but her history of urinary infections and occasional electrolyte issues necessitates deeper examination. The temporary increases in blood pressure might be caused by stress or other environmental factors. It is essential to watch her diet, reduce salt intake, and hydrate properly. I suggest scheduling regular check-ups with a  nephrologist to explain her condition and regulate medication with a healthcare professional who can provide customized care
