My report shows pus cells 10 to 15 per HPF and RBCs 2 to 3 per HPF. I am a 29 year old woman and I am taking the following medicines: Rekool L 25, Q max 200 mg, and Surbex XT. Is this okay or do I need more tablets?

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.

Hi, my wife and I went on a 12 days international vacation and were scheduled to go for our 12 week pregnancy scan immediately after returning. We had a long international flight and got the scan and urine test immediately. While the NT scan and other reports are fine, the urine report shows 6 to 8 pus cells with a urine pH of 8. Is this possibly due to temporary dehydration from travel or is it something more serious? My wife does not have any other symptoms and is fine. We are asking this since we can only meet our doctor in a wee time. Thanks.
