Im looking at the results from a physical examination and Im a bit worried. It mentions a 'slight turbid' appearance and there's a 'faint trace' of protein in the chemical examination. The microscopic examination shows pus cells at 56 and red cells at 10-12, with epithelial cells marked as 23. Should I be concerned about these results? What could they indicate about my health?

The urine sample shows slight turbidity, with a faint trace of protein in the chemical examination. The microscopic examination reveals 5-6 pus cells, 10-12 red blood cells, and 2-3 epithelial cells, which may indicate mild urinary tract irritation or infection. Its important to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and appropriate treatment.

Question

I'm a bit concerned about my recent lab results. I had both an LFT and KFT done, and while my LFT is normal, I'm worried about my creatinine level, which came back at 1.1. The normal range they gave me is between 0.4 to 1.4, so should I be concerned about it being at the higher end? Also, my uric acid level is 7.2, with normal ranges listed as 4.8 to 7.5. I noticed my urine is yellow in the morning, but it seems normal throughout the day as long as I stay hydrated. I had chickenpox last December, but that's all cleared up now. What do you suggest I do about these results? I've attached my KFT and LFT reports for you to take a look.

Question

I'm really concerned because my left kidney is measuring 7.2 cm by 3.9 cm, and I'm experiencing a swollen face, dark facial color, and leg edema. Is this a dangerous situation, and is there any way to treat this permanently?

Question

I'm really worried because my dad's been having swelling in his face and legs ever since he recovered from COVID, and it's been going on for over a month now. During his treatment, he had to be given oxygen. The weird thing is, he isn't feeling any pain or anything else unusual in those areas. Could this be related to his COVID recovery, or might it be something different? What should we do next?
