Can Pus Cells In Urine Be The Cause Of Gastric Ulcer?
My 9 year old daughter has been on medication for a gastric ulcer but she has had pus cells in her urine for 3 weeks. She has no uti (she was tested a week and a half ago), no pain representative of uti s. The doctor has referred her for an ultrasound on her kidneys.

Hello,
The pus cells presence usually indicate urinary tract infection. The infection can be in the form of kidney infection, bladder infection or urethritis.
So ultrasonography will be beneficial to do further workup. It is also important to know how much pus cells present in urine.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
