What Does WBC Count Of 28/hpf In Urine Mean?
HiI recently had a urine test that came back with 28 hpf white blood cells. However, the results of the culture states that there was growth but of no signficance. I would like to know if it's still possible that i have an STI as my Dr suggested before the tests were carried out. I have the regular symptoms : slight discharge , slight itching on my penis. Please help

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
High level of white blood cells is related to a urinary tract infection.
I suggest to use a cycle of antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin twice a day for a week.
I also suggest taking antibiotics such as Ibuprofen to relieve the symptoms.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contappct me again.
Kind regards!
