A member asked:
I had a urine dipstick test done and it showed white blood cells. is this definitely a uti or something more serious. ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Definitely unsure.: WBC in the urine could be evident of an infection. Could be an inflammatory issue. Could be nothing. If the analysis showed only WBCs, then a formal urinalysis with microscopy as well as a urine culture should be sent, which would give you much more accurate results than the dipstick.
