Hi, welcome to our site.

Read your query. That is a very significant question and i appreciate your problem. I will try my best to answer your query

there are two possibilities that are happening
one possibility is that you have a urinary tract infection. the raised pus cells suggest as much. the proteinuria may be secondary to that

second possibility is that you are developing a renal damage. the excess pus cells may be secondary to that. I think the possibility of the latter is high.

But i sincerely hope the former is the case- its more easy to treat.

I hope this helps you. Inform the reports mentioned above so i can be of help further. Best of luck.

I have given you the answer to the maximum considering the information provided. The results of the tests could further enhance my answer to you.

Please do understand that some details could be extracted from a detailed history and examination.

Looking forward to your return query with the details asked so that I can help you further.
(If the answer has helped you, please indicate this)
