In diabetic patients, persistent RBCs and pus cells (likely paru refers to pus cells) in urine can indicate a urinary tract infection. Since she also has pain and got vaccinated recently, infection is more likely than vaccine side effect. Start her on fluids and consult a doctor soon.

Hi, I am a 36 year old female. I developed a urinary tract infection last week and am currently taking antibiotics for it. During the infection, I experienced fever, shivering, and significant weakness. My urine report showed protein as well as a large number of pus cells. Can a UTI cause protein to appear in the urine?

Hello Doctor, My husband got 8 to 10 per high power field epithelial cells in his urine test. He had appendicitis three years ago. He is now getting pain in the lower abdomen. Please tell me, is this a serious condition or is it okay?
