I am a 42 year old male. I had severe fever with diarrhea one week ago, along with shivering. I did blood and urine tests, and the urine report showed protein 1+ in urine. Is protein in urine normal during a fever, or should I be concerned?

Mild protein in urine (1+) can occur during infections. Recheck urine after recovery to rule out kidney issues.

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
