What does having high leukocytes in urine mean? 500 +++
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Infection: Leukocytes are white blood cells, which are the infection-fighters. If you have wbcs in the urine, then you probably have a urinary tract infection that needs to be treated with antibiotics. You may have symptoms like burning, pain, hesitancy, incontinence, frequency, urgency, nighttime urination, residual sensation after, or even blood in the urine. Watch out for fevers or back pain!
