Yes, they can detect UTI in urine.

Dr. Dhankecha Suggests...

Take a Xpert Annual Health Check-Up with Smart Report Test or Take a THYROID PEROXIDASE ANTIBODIES (ANTI MICROSOMAL ANTIBODIES) Test

I have leucocytes and erythrocytes detected in my urine sample. Previously, my protein and potassium levels were also high, but those are now under control. I have attached my report for your review. Could you please help me understand what the problem might be?

Hi I am having pain in my stomach for the last few weeks. I took medication but did not recover much. I am still having mild but continuous pain in my lower abdomen and frequent pain in my penis. The pain gets worse if I do not have water for half an hour or more. I have attached my report. Can you please help me to know if there is any case of stone or urine infection and why my pain is not relieved?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I am suffering from urinating problems for the past 4 to 5 months. I need to pass urine 8 to 10 times at night. I pass more urine while sitting than standing. I went to the hospital and my lab reports and USG are normal. The doctor advised me to take Tab. Cystone but it has not cured my problem. Please advise me as I am suffering from a big problem?
