thank you for your query....
see having no RBCs and WBCs in your urine sample is a normal finding....
whereas RBCs in urine may suggest signs of hematuria or blood in urine, higher levels of WBCs in urine might come up with a diagnosis of urinary infection...
anyways for your urinary discomfort, take excess amounts of water everyday like 4-5lit/day for a few days and it will be solved...alongwith genital cleanliness is suggested...if still it persists, another urine test should be done and the results will decide the next line of treatment...

hope this was helpful....
