A member asked:

What does lukes in your urine mean or something that sounds like lukes?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Leukocytes = WBCs: "leuks" or leukocytes are white blood cells. They normally should not be found in urine or only in a very tiny amount. Wbcs in the urine indicate that an inflammatory or immune system reaction is taking place. Without more information, in terms of other urine or laboratory markers, symptoms, etc. That is about all one can say with regard to this.
