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?

Mild increase in pus cells may suggest early infection. Monitor for symptoms like burning or urgency. Please consult a doctor and repeat test if symptoms persist.
