A member asked:

Is it normal to have trace of leukocytes in urine? i saw my test results and was told i did not have a bladder infection but i feel some symptoms that lead me to believe i do.

Dr. Kathy Robinson answered

Usually not: Trace leukocytes can be normal. However, if you are having symptoms your doctor needs to send the urine for a culture to make sure there is no infection. Have your urine retested and if it looks negative again ask for a urine culture to be done.
