Is Cloudy Urine Normal?

I ve noticed recently that my urine is rather cloudy. Is this indicative of something that I need to see a Dr. about. I drink about 4-5 glasses of water ad day. I also play racquetball and bike and naturally drink more when I m involved in those activities. Recommendations?

Hi,

I understand your concern.

Urine can change its appearance in following cases:
- taking certain medications
- taking crystalline substances or those inducing increased protein production
- urinary tract infection

Urine analysis is further recommended to rule out UTI and look for infection.

Hope this helps.
