Hello and thanks for your question.
It's my first priority to help you.
Such pus cells and few bacteria indicate urinary tract infection.
I would recommend to undergo urine culture and sensitivity test for further evaluation and management.
Hydrate yourself with plenty of fluids.
Plenty of epithelial cells are normal findings.
Hope this helps.
