What Could Leukocytes Being 25 WBC /ul And 6-8 Visible In Urine Test Mean?

Hello. I had urine test today, and I got my results. Unfortunately I will visit my doctor at Monday, so I would like to make sure is that everything all right. I searched for some info online, all is fine but I m worried about leukocytes; 25 WBC/ul (no idea what it means) and 6-8 visible. Thanks for the answer

WBCs in urine indicate some infection of mild degree in urinary tract.
You havent mentioned about fever.
In my clinic, I start with empirical antibiotics, then change it if necessary according to culture-sensitivity report.
