Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for follow up .Foamy urine has no significance at all neither it signify any disease of kidney .

Taking high protein diet can lead to foamy urine .or large urine volume with forceful urination when urine strikes toilet can cause urine to become foamy .

Go ahead and do routine exercises without any apprehension or fear .
