What Causes Blood Cells In Urine Test Results?
I had urine full report for my regular checkup and it has 8-10 blood cells, and then i did ultrasound scan, it says my left kidney is slightly dilated and asked me to do the scan after two month again. Anyway i did UFR after 2 weeks and now it has 2-4 blood cells, is it normal. i don't have any symptoms , like abdominal pain or anything

Hello,
As a urologist, I can understand your anxiety. Blood cells in urine are not normal. The cause for it must be found out and treated. A slightly dilated kidney found on ultrasound scan needs further testing. The single best test is to do a CT-IVU.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Matthew J. Mangat
