Presence of 8 to 10 pus cells, occasional RBCs, and 15 to 20 epithelial cells suggests a mild urinary tract infection or contamination. It is advisable to correlate with symptoms like burning, frequency, or pain.

Hello, I am attaching my urine routine test report. Yesterday I had whitish urine with small white strings and a little burning sensation. I told my doctor friend about this, and he asked me to do a routine urine exam but said there is nothing significant in the test. Please help.
