A member asked:
What causes "crystals" in the urine of a 5.5yo girl? not a uti, doc said "crystals".
A doctor has provided 1 answer
URINE CRYSTALS: Some crystals in the urine are not normally found especially in a 5 year old. They usually repeat ua to make sure about that. Otherwise DX workup has to be done.
