What Is The Reason For Having White Flakes In 3 Year Old's Urine?

I have noticed white flakes in my 3 year old's urine. At first I thought it was crumbs, specks from the pull up etc. But now I am drying out the potty seat and poured the urine in a clear bag. I think he has had this for at least a week, maybe longer. I don't know what I was thinking but now I am concerned. Does this merit a trip to a DR. ASAP?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
This is fairly common condition among the pediatric age group and the first possibility of this is certain medicine which forms such crystals if the child is not on any drug then the food of certain kind may form such crystals but no need to worry this wont harm the health of your baby and will go away for sure, if it persistence then it need to be investigated you can wait for couple of week, hope this will help you have nice day.
