A member asked:

What does this mean. urine culture 10,000 to 40,000col/ml alpha hemolytic streptococcal are organism found in skin flora. they may be opportunistic to compromised people. contact lab within 5 days if antibiotic susceptibility testing is needed?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

This is a common contaminant bacteria and it does not require antibiotic treatment. Unless you have symptoms of bladder infection(frequent urination which is associated with a sense of urgency to urinate), you do not need to do a urine culture. If you have the above symptoms then you should visit your doctor for further management.
