Hello user,
First of all the presence of proteins, granular casts, in urine is NOT normal finding, unless it is correlates with the clinical findings.

Your USG report also says some structural anomaly in your kidney.
It would have been of more help if I had got your age and Diabetes or Hypertension history, and the blood Sodium Potassium and Creatinine values.

Hope my advise helped you.
