Specializes in Urology

Inflammation: Positive leukocyte esterase test means that there is inflammation in the urinary tract. This could be urinary tract infection or other inflammation. While this may not be a problem, you should see the urologist to examine the urine specifically for white blood cells or red blood cells in the urine. This will ensure that there is not problem that requires further followup or treatment.
