Pus cells 8 to 10/HPF means mildly raised. May indicate minor urine infection. RBC nil is good. Epithelial cells 10 to 12/HPF may be normal. Not serious but monitor. Recommend Urine Culture test. Stay hydrated, maintain hygiene.

What is the meaning of HPF in urinalysis?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Hi Sir. I have had back pain for one week, and today I developed fever, cold, and cough. I got my blood and urine tested. After the urine test, the doctor informed me that I have a urinary infection. The test showed albumin (present +) and pus cells 3 to 4/HPF. The doctor suggested taking Cystone syrup. After one day, I am fine from fever, cold, and cough, but I sometimes get pain in my right lower rib. What should I do?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I recently had a urine test showing 6 to 10 pus cells. Today, I noticed an extra mass of skin near my anus, which is also painful. Could this be something serious, or is it related to a urinary tract infection? Please advise.
