Brief Answer:
You have URI

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

Based on the fact that you have posted presence of 1-2 Squamish cells in urine is normal and not to be worried for

However Presence of 4-5 pus cells suggests urinary infection

Start taking antibiotics like Norfloxacin and Nitrofurantoin twice daily along with Citralka thrice daily

Ensure to drink more water

Thanks and Regards
