A member asked:

On my urinalysis test it shows protein total,ql 1+ & bacteria few (10-25) what the cause of that & what to do for it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bacteriuria: Small amounts of bacteria and protein are commonly found in the urine and most of the time are considered normal. More information is needed to correctly interpret your urine studies.
