What Does The Presence Of RBC In Urine Indicate?
Question: I have a RBC, Urine HPF if 4-10
Brief Answer:
Do you have any other symptoms at this time?
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this RBC in urine that you have reported. Normally, there are no RBC in the urine. RBC in urine are often witnessed when there is also a urinary tract infection. In this scenario, you would report other symptoms such as frequent painful urination in small volumes. If you have these, I will suggest that you should be treated for possible UTI. If these are absent, I will recommend that you get a full urinalysis. This will help to look for other possible causes such a kidney stones, kidney disease, etc.
If you did a comprehensive urine test, could you please upload the report for full interpretation as other parameters would help shed light on this?To upload an image, simply click on the link to upload a file and follow the instructions. If this proves difficult, please send the image by mail to YYYY@YYYY and request that the image should be uploaded to your query.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.

Brief Answer:
These findings are not suggestive of ant particular disease at this time.
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for the complete results.
There are no findings in support of an infection. But for the blood, which is is small traces, there are no other abnormalities. At this time, I will recommend that you do nothing unless there are further symptoms. Control this test in 4weeks to see if this blood is still present. Given the normal findings, this might have be related to small trauma during collection. However, if it persists on the control specimen, then we would be digging deeper and doing more tests to make sure there is nothing more concerning that we are missing out on at this time.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you feel comfortable with this or there are other worries you would like us to talk about again.
Until next, accept best wish from me.
