urine routine report - #14559

Saanvi

I am feeling a bit overwhelmed because I just got my urine routine report back and there are some things on it that raised my concerns. I've been having this weird discomfort in my lower abdomen for a few weeks now, kinda like a pressure that comes and goes, and sometimes it feels like I need to urinate more often than usual! My doctor suggested getting the urine routine report, and now that I see it, there are a few results that don't seem normal to me. For example, there's mention of "trace protein" and "cloudy appearance." What does that mean? I thought urine should be pretty clear and no protein should show up in the urine routine report, right? I also noticed some slight blood in my sample, which freaked me out a bit! I don't know if I should be really worried about this or is it common? What could possibly cause these results in a urine routine report? I mean, am I overthinking things? I don't have any history of kidney issues or anything like that in my family. Should I be asking for more tests or something? Any input would help, I'm just really curious and slightly anxious about this urine routine report!
