Hi
Thanks for your query
Based on your query and reports, my opinion is
1. Presence of WBC in the given range indicates a possible urinary tract infection.
2. This needs to be further confirmed with culture sensitivity of the bacteria which will guide to decide on antibiotics to be started.
3. Normally less then 5 WBCs are seen in urine. In your case it is significant.
Hope this helps.
Wish you good health
