I'm curious, is it normal to find traces of protein in a complete urine test when you have a fever? Can you explain if that's something to worry about?

Traces of protein in the urine means a small amount of protein ,which could be normal or due to urinary tract infection.But a larger amount of protein indicates serious disorders of kidneys. You could repeat the urine analysis after few days and if it shows presence of protein , you need to go through further tests.

My creatinine level is at 5.5 and I have CKD, Dr Ranjit Jagtap from Pune said heart surgery isn't an option right now. What should I do to manage my condition and are there other treatments I can explore?

This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.
