My father is 63 years old and he has diabetes. Recently we visited his regular diabetic doctor for a check up and at that time he said my father is having infection in urine and due to this he should avoid salty foods and ghee foods. We followed his instructions. But in the past few days he was suffering from cold and fever. Suddenly we could not take him to his regular doctor for a check up so I took him to a nearby clinic and that doctor advised to do a culture test. I got the results today. I would like to know what is in the results. Is the report normal? I am attaching the lab report for reference. Thank you.

Diabetic patients are prone to recurrent UTIs. Fever and new symptoms after culture require urgent attention. Interpretation depends on sensitivity patterns. You must take a Urine Culture and CBC to identify infection severity and treat accordingly.

I am a 27 year old married working woman. I catch infection again and again and I feel burning sensation and irritation while passing urine. I have taken an antibiotics course and a few days back I had a urine test and this is my report. I am not very convinced with the doctor so I want to consult first. Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how can it be treated so that it will not come back again and again? Please help.

Dear sir or madam I have symptoms of UTI. Please see the attached blood and urine report. Do I need to visit a doctor or just continue with UTI medicines, namely Tracfree sachets, Cital syrup, Mactifur 100 and Pantop D for 5 days? What does the report say? Thank you.

Kindly check my report. My leucocyte esterase is positive and pus cells are 10 to 12 WBC per HPF. Is this very high. I am 31 weeks pregnant. Can this harm my baby? I am really worried.
