I suspect I might have a kidney infection. My urine report shows albumin +++, RBCs are plenty, pus cells 3 to 4 per hpf, epithelial cells 1 to 2 per hpf, UBG 1+, BLD plus minus, PRO 3+, and LEU 3+. Could you please guide me on what this indicates and the next steps I should take?

I am having a burning sensation at the end while peeing and continuously feel like peeing. I am also feeling cold and like I have a fever, but it is not showing on the thermometer. Could it be a UTI? What test should I get done to confirm this?

Hi, Three years ago, I completed treatment for pulmonary TB. For the past 10 days, I have been experiencing urinary irritation (feeling the urge but unable to pass urine properly) along with a dragging pain in the lower abdomen. Could you please advise which tests I should undergo before visiting a doctor?
