My routine urine report shows 10 to 15 pus cells per hpf and a trace amount of protein. Epithelial cells are 2 to 3 per hpf. Could you please help me understand what this means and if any treatment is needed?

This could indicate a mild urinary tract infection. Drink more fluids, cranberry juice, maintain hygiene, and consult a doctor if you experience burning or pain while urinating. A short course of antibiotics may be advised after a urine culture. Get advised tests done.

My first urine sample shows blood and I am experiencing pain in the lower abdomen. However, my USG KUB report is clear, but the urine test indicates a UTI. Please review my report and suggest the best medicine to clear the UTI.

I am currently having a UTI, and I have done a urine report and urine culture. I have been taking medicines for the last 15 to 20 days, but still have frequent urination and lower abdomen or stomach pain. Earlier, there were antibiotics, but now another dose is prescribed without antibiotics. Will doing panchakarma help to cure UTI?

I want to know if my 9 month old baby urine report is normal or not. Should I be concerned and consult a doctor? The report shows pus cells 15 to 20 per HPF, epithelial cells 1 to 2 per HPF, reaction 7.6, specific gravity 1015, leukocytes, and ketone negative.
