Mild pus and RBCs in urine can be normal, especially postpartum. However, persistent swelling may indicate other issues like kidney or cardiac problems. Monitor BP and consult a doctor if swelling persists.

Hi, I have attached my thyroid and urine reports. In the urine report, it shows 6 to 8 pus cells. Is this normal, or does it indicate an infection that requires treatment?

My grandma had her routine blood checkup in which her urine report shows pus cells 15 to 20 per hpf. She does not have any complaints except occasional urinary incontinence for which she is taking Ayurvedic medicine. What does the presence of pus cells indicate?
