Can a kidney infection be detected from a urine test?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have two kidney stones. My ultrasound scan shows a 10.3 mm stone in the right kidney and a 6.3 mm stone in the left kidney. The scan also notes mildly increased renal parenchymal echogenicity, suggesting medical renal disease, with bilateral non obstructing calculi. My urine and blood tests show a creatinine level of 1.65 mg/dL, urea of 31.9 mg/dL, blood urea nitrogen of 14.9 mg/dL, and protein 1. I would like to understand what this means for my kidney health and what steps I should take next.

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have kidney stones in both kidneys, measuring 2 to 4 mm. Can I have a urinary tract infection? Please clarify after reviewing my attached urine test report.
