\n

Passing foamy urine now and then is common. Urine may be foamy if you urinate quickly or with force. Dehydration, urinary tract infections and exercise also may make urine foamy.<\/p>\n

But you should see your healthcare professional if you often have foamy urine that gets more noticeable over time. This can be a sign of protein in the urine, which is called proteinuria. Proteinuria needs to be looked at. Having a lot of protein in your urine could mean you have a serious kidney issue.<\/p>\n

If your urine seems more foamy than usual most of the time, your healthcare professional may do a urine test called urinalysis. You collect urine in a cup, and a dipstick is used to check the urine for high protein levels. If protein levels are high, your sample may be sent to a lab. You may need other tests to find the cause.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
