The presence of pus cells and RBC in urine indicate towards infection or even possibility of stone. As your baby is only one year old so the possibility of stone is negligible. Many a times technicians write 2-3 or 3-4 in routine as their clinical significance is not much. I would suggest you to get urine examination repeated. If again pus or RBC is there then treatment is called for. In Ayurveda you can administer syrup Ural.

Hello and thanks for the query
I understand that you child is unable to take the prescribed antibiotic and so you want to give her an alternative medicine.
Alternative medicines also need symptoms for prescription-like does she get pain when passing urine ,does she have fever , how is her appetite and thirst ?
Kindly revert back at this link for detailed case history

till then you can give Sarsaparilla 30 4 pills every onehourly and Chimaphila umbellata Q 10 drops in 2 spoons of water every four hours .
Thanks and take care .
