My baby is 6 months old and has had a fever for the last 5 days. After consultation, we did a urine test. The report shows albumin as traces and pus cells 8 to 10. I want to know if this is a matter of concern and, on a general basis, how long it usually takes to recover after starting treatment.

Pus cells and albumin suggest UTI. Early treatment usually resolves it quickly in 5 to 7 days. Please confirm with a Urine Culture and Sensitivity test. Take the test immediately.

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?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Pus cells are absent in urine, does this mean there are any chances that pus cells can be present in stool. I have a normal urine report.
