Hello and thanks for posting the query
You have abnormal urine examination report, you have increased number of RBC in it and borderline pus cells. The possible diagnosis is Urinary track infection. But we need to find out the cause of infection and RBC in it.
The causes may be Renal calculi, Any other obstruction in urine pathway like BPH, Cancer, Kidney infection etc. Ultrasound can help in finding the diagnosis and obstruction if any. In my opinion urine culture must be done.. Consult your urologist and go for the further investigations.
Best Wishes
