Detailed Answer:
Hello

Latest urine analysis report suggests urinary tract infection(UTI). UTI is indicated by presence of excessive WBC in urine. Up to 5 WBC(leukocyte) is acceptable in urine.

You need proper clinical examination and routine investigations. Investigations include routine hemogram, random blood sugar, renal function test, ultrasound of abdomen, urine culture/sensitivity.

Proper antibiotics should be based upon culture and sensitivity report.

You should drink plenty of water.You may also need to take alkalizing syrup.

Get well soon.
