i know that's the difference between foamy urine and bubble because when I drink lots of water, I don't see the foamy urine. Even when I try to urinate at the side of the toilet bowel, I can see small bubbles being formed and it stays there. I am wondering what else could cause the foamy urine other than protein? i googled and can't seem to find any answer.
This depends upon what you relate as "foamy urine". This may be nothing but bubbles that any guy would see as he urinates into the water in the toilet bowl. Since your tests came back negative, try to put this aside unless you see/feel other symptoms.
