#1= infection, #2 =?: Obviously you've had a urinalysis. The next step would to go over this with your M.D. The question is what caused the infection, and is it secondary to other problems such as kidney stones, some other inflammatory process (of which there are many). Autoimmune diseases, reactions to medications are all possible.

Accepted Answer

Maybe not UTI: red cells in the urine  , can be from trauma, kidney disease or disease of the urinary tract. They do not often appear in UTIs without White blood cells.
