I have Spina Bifida w/Renal insuffucancy & had a U/A & Urine culture one last friday. No infection, but my Protein came back 3+. I am going for a 24 hour urine test along with a Ultra Sound of bladder,kidney & ureter. I am having pain in both kidneys. Is this bad?
HelloThanks for query. Presence of 3+ proteins in urine could be due to Parenchymal Kidney Disease and has to be confirmed by series of tests. Please consult qualified Urologist for clinical examination and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis.1) Urine routine and culture.2) Ultrasound scanning of abdomen and pelvis (This will rule out /confirm presence of stone in kidneys)3) Renal Function Tests .4) Excretion of urinary proteins in 24 hours sample of urine.Further, tests if required to be done and treatment will depend upon result of these tests and final diagnosis.
