I'm noticing some albumin in my urine for the past month or so. It's been bouncing between 1 and 2, though now it's less than 1. Sometimes it still goes up to 1 or 2. Should I be worried about this? Could there be an issue with my kidneys or something else with my urine?

This can be a sign of kidney damage or dysfunction. To help reduce the albumin in your urine and protect your kidneys, you can take medications such as ACE inhibitors like Enalapril 10mg once daily or ARBs like Losartan. It is important to also follow a low-salt diet and stay hydrated. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is recommended to monitor your kidney function.
