My wife is 48 years old with height 5 feet 3 inches and weight 66 kgs. Her blood report shows RBC 5.6 with maximum 5.1 and haemoglobin 15.3 with maximum 15.3. Her urine report shows white pus cells 60 to 80 hpf, red cells occasional, epithelial cells 10 to 20 hpf, leukocytes 3 plus, and protein traces. Her serum creatinine is 0.9. Could you please help me understand the issue with these numbers?

My urine test report shows pus cells 10 to 15 per high power field. I want to know if this is abnormal, and which specialist should be consulted.
