Why might the urine report from a dipstick list blood in urine as 50?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Blood in urine: Blood in the urine is never a normal finding. It could come from a uti, bleeding from the bladder (b) or the kidneys. I would first get a urine culture. If it is negative, the next step is a renal ultrasound and an ivp to assess the structure of the kidneys and to see if there are kidney stones or a tumor present. If of these negative, you need to see a urologist to look at your urinary bladder.

Good evening doctors. With regard to urine assessment, are dipsticks valid and reliable enough to check blood and protein, or is it better to do urinanalysls?
