Yes, they can detect UTI in urine.

Dr. Dhankecha Suggests...

Take a Xpert Health Annual Health Check-Up Test or Take a THYROID PEROXIDASE ANTIBODIES (ANTI MICROSOMAL ANTIBODIES) Test

I have been experiencing severe itching while urinating and need to go to the bathroom very frequently, about every 30 minutes. My urine test report came back normal. Could you please advise why this problem might be occurring?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Hello, I am attaching my urine routine test report. Yesterday I had whitish urine with small white strings and a little burning sensation. I told my doctor friend about this, and he asked me to do a routine urine exam but said there is nothing significant in the test. Please help.

I have had rough patches in my mouth for 15 days and feel a burning sensation in my penis after urination. My urine report shows the reaction as acidic.
