Question

I'm a 45-year-old guy dealing with hypertension for the past couple of years. Lately, I've noticed that my morning urine is really foamy, but there's no discomfort when I'm peeing. I'm just curious, what could be causing this foamy urine in the morning?

What foods help repair kidneys?

Question

I've just had a routine ultrasound and it turns out my left kidney is now just 7.5 cm, even though my right one seems to be normal. When I had a scan about five years ago, the left kidney was 10 cm. I also did a urine test that showed 100 mgdL of protein and my serum creatinine level is at 1.24. Should I be worried about this? Could this be Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)?
