Kindly check my urine report. It shows a trace of protein in the urine. I am currently 32 weeks pregnant and would like to know if this is normal during pregnancy or if I should be concerned. Is it harmful for the baby, or does it indicate anything serious?

A trace of protein can occur in later pregnancy and is not always harmful. Your doctor will monitor blood pressure and swelling to rule out any risk. Most cases settle with rest and hydration. Please repeat the urine protein test and monitor your blood pressure and sugar levels regularly as advised.

Hello Doctor, within the last week my whole body has become swollen. I also have constipation with heavy gas in my stomach. After checking my urine test report, my doctor said that albumin is leaking into my urine and mentioned that it may be related to a kidney problem. Please advise
