Daughter has bubbles in her urine...

Anonymous
So I took my DD (7) in to the doctor this week because I noticed that she was scratching herself frequently and when I asked she said it hurt. The office was SWAMPED after being closed due to the snow. They did a quick look and thought it was just minor irritation and suggested we use aquaphor. I noticed this afternoon that her urine is bubbly.

Am I being a little bit of a helicopter mom here and I need to relax? Or should I take her back and ask for a urine check?

Get a new ped - it was a no-brainer to get a urine sample. Though I've never heard of bubbles in the urine being a sign of a UTI. I would try a bath with a half cup white vinegar (or more? Can't remember. Your ped should be able to tell you if you call). Is she having urgency to pee or burning?

Weird physical symptom in young child? Um. No. You are supposed to follow up. Doctors aren't infallible. Half of them graduated at the bottom half of their class.

Op- it could anything from "nothing" to "very serious."

Dehydration to just peeing quickly = not too much of a concern.

Yeast infection/uti: easy to address (typically)

Protein in urine-a lot more worrisome.

Ergo they should have at LEAST have taken a sample.

I always have bubbles, and have never ever had a UTI.
