Detailed Answer:
Welcome to health care magic, I share your concern and I will try to help you out in best possible way.
There are multitude of tests that you can undergo to check for renal function, but to be more specific in your case, there is a need to test
1. urinalysis for detection of protein, microalbuminuria and creatinine clearance test.
2. Blood investigations like serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen etc.
3. kidney functioning tests like Glomerular filtration rate.
Since you are concerned more with frequency of urination and presence of froth, let me assure you that they both are nota cause for worry and they are normal physiological changes due to increased fluid intake.
I hope this helps you
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
If not, you may close the discussion and if possible you may rate the answer for me, so that I get a good feedback.
