I want to know about the lab report of my father. Is there any problem in the urinary tract? What does it mean when protein levels are high?

High protein in urine known as proteinuria, can be due to kidney issues or urinary infections. It is important to correlate with kidney function tests and blood pressure. Please consult a nephrologist.

Answered by Apollo Doctors

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

Hello Doctor, good evening. I got my urine test and blood test done today and received the reports. In urine examination, proteins were positive. In the blood report, total blood count was 5.1 with reference 3.8 to 4.8, MCH was 26 with reference 27 to 32, MCHC was 30 with reference 31.5 to 34.5, white blood count was 17,570 with reference 4,000 to 10,000, and lymphocytes were 14 with reference 20 to 40. Could you please advise what these readings indicate and suggest appropriate medication?
