A member asked:
Swab test says few leucocytes, numerous gram positive bacilli, scant gram negative bacilli. no pathogens isolated, n.gonorrhea not isolated. meaning?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: In the absence of symptoms (urethral discharge, burning, itching), numerous gram positive bacilli usually just represents normal bacterial skin flora and clinically insignificant. Whereas many leukocytes (white blood cells) would suggest some type of infection or inflammation, a few leukocytes is non-specific and may just represent a normal finding.
