Detailed Answer:
Hello.

Welcome to Healthcare Magic.

I read carefully your query and evaluated the picture you have send.

The conjunctiva in the lower eyelid can be a bit pale but this doesn't mean you have anemia for sure and it isn't a reason for concern.
If you have pale skin ,unexplained fatigue ,weakness,dizziness ,headache,heart palpitations, brittle nails,pale nails etc ,then it is possible to have Anemia.

If you don't have any symptom or sign at all ,you don't need to worry.Only a pale conjunctiva ,with no other signs or symptoms is not indicative for anemia.It can be completely normal.

The only way to know if for sure is to do a complete blood test ,which will evaluate the Hemoglobin and Red blood cells in blood.

Hope it helps.
Please feel free to ask for every question you might have.

Kind regards,
Dr.Rovena Murati

Detailed Answer:
Hello again.

I apologize for the delay in answering your query.

The symptoms you had : lower abdominal pain,back pain ,frequent urination can be related to a urinary tract infection or the presence of kidney stones.
This can explain the presence of leukocytes and erythrocytes in urine.

You may need to do some tests like:
-Complete blood count.
-Blood sugar
-Abdominal ultrasound
-Abdominal X-ray
I would suggest to consult a physician ,get examined and get the tests done.


Kind regards,
Dr.Rovena
