Brief Answer:

Needs to get investigated

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

Presence if 6-8 RBC in urine is mostly due to either:

1) UTI or
2) Mass in either kidney or bladder
3) Stone in kidney
and needs to get investigated

Consult qualified Urologist for clinical examination and get the following basic tests done to establish a diagnosis:

1) Urine routine and urine culture
2) Ultrasound Scanning of abdomen and Pelvis

Further treatment will depend upon the results of these tests and final diagnosis

In the meantime start taking antibiotics like Ciprofloxacin and Nitrofurantoin twice daily along with Citralka thrice daily.

Hope I have answered your query.

Take care

Regards,
Dr P. T. Patil, Urologist
