Benign causes include fever, intense activity or exercise, dehydration, emotional stress and acute illness.More serious causes include glomerulonephritis and multiple myeloma. Although a wide variety of conditions, ranging from benign to lethal, can cause proteinuria, fewer than 2 percent of patients whose urine dipstick test is positive for protein have serious and treatable urinary tract disorders.
