Thanks for writing
Passing foamy urine now and then is normal, for the speed of urination and other factors can influence this. but if you have persistently foamy urine that becomes more noticeable over time. This can be a sign of protein in your urine (proteinuria), which requires further evaluation. Increased amounts of protein in urine may indicate a serious kidney problem.

If your urine seems unusually foamy most of the time, urine check for elevated levels of protein maybe needed. If the test is positive, you may need further tests to determine the cause of the problem.
it maybe as a result of lack of water. if you dont take enough water. when you take enough water you rarely see the foamy or bubbles in your urine.you can use this drug cefoxitin plus cap. doxycycline 100 mg orally 14 days.
