I've noticed over the last few months that my urine sometimes appears foamy, especially when I first wake up or during the night. The foaminess variessometimes it's pretty thick, other times it's just mild, and occasionally it's not foamy at all. Is this something I should be worried about? What could be causing this?

Can diabetes affect my kidney health?

I'm really concerned about my dad. He's been dealing with heart issues and diabetes for over four years, and now his latest checkup showed his creatinine levels are up. I'm curious if there are specific foods, maybe certain types of millet or anything else, that might help lower his creatinine. Also, I'm a bit confused about how much fluid he should actually be drinking.
