Hello
Thanks for query .

You are being treated for kidney infection and passing white substances in urine since very recently .

The white particles that you are passing are clumps (Muck)of disqquamated epithelial lining of mucus membrane of urinary system more from the bladder mucosa which signify chronic infection (Chronic UTI ).

You need to do urine culture to find out organisms causing this infection and take appropriate antibiotic as per culture report.

Ensure to drink more water to keep your urine dilute and to flush out the muck.
