Hi, welcome to healthcare magic.
Kindly mention ur age and is there any swelling?
4+ albumin in urine is suggestive of protein leakage in the urine from kidney.
U should quantitate the amount of protein leakage in 24 hour urine sample.
Do repeat S. Creatinine and take advise of Nephrologist.
U may need kidney biopsy for identification of glomerular disorder and its treatment.
I think this would be helpful to u.
If any doubt, feel free to ask further.
Thanking u.
