In diabetic patients, persistent RBCs and pus cells (likely paru refers to pus cells) in urine can indicate a urinary tract infection. Since she also has pain and got vaccinated recently, infection is more likely than vaccine side effect. Start her on fluids and consult a doctor soon.

Kindly check my report. My leucocyte esterase is positive and pus cells are 10 to 12 WBC per HPF. Is this very high. I am 31 weeks pregnant. Can this harm my baby? I am really worried.

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?

Hello doctor I am a 21 year old unmarried girl. Is there any blood or urine report that can prove a urinary tract infection is caused because of sex?
