A member asked:

Tiny brown flakes in urine (occasional and 1-2 flakes), went to urgent care to get urine test and found white blood cells and no infection. ive been drinking a lot of water so ive been urinating frequently but have no other symptoms. what is this?

If you only had a urine culture & haven't had a complete urinalysis including a.microscopic examination of the sediment, I recommend having one for completeness. Flaky substances in urine can be from casts of red blood cells or of other abnormal cells,parts of cells or parts of tissue.
