I have 1+ protein in my urine report. Is that something to be worried about? Do I need to test anything more? What medicine is best to cure this?

A level of 1+ protein can indicate early kidney issues, especially if it persists. If associated with swelling, hypertension, or diabetes, perform a 24 hour protein estimation and kidney tests. Please take the Urine Protein/Creatinine Ratio next.
