What does high white blood cell count in urine routine mean

Many people do not understand what high white blood cell count in urine routine tests means. Generally speaking, we use urine routine tests to understand whether we are infected with some pathogens. High white blood cell count in urine routine tests may be caused by bacteria or viruses in the human body. It is also possible that it is caused by urinary tract infection. If you often experience frequent urination, urgency, and pain when urinating, you must go to the hospital for examination.

1. When we go to the hospital for a physical examination in our daily life, the doctor will usually check our blood routine and urine routine to help us better judge our own condition based on the results of our examination. When the white blood cell count in urine is high, we need to pay attention, because the white blood cells in our body belong to the category of immune system. If the number of white blood cells increases, it means that there is an infection in our body and the white blood cells need to increase to fight bacteria and viruses.

3. If a urine routine test reveals an elevated white blood cell count, urinary tract infection cannot be ruled out. For example, the main manifestation of cystitis is frequent urination, urgency and pain, sometimes accompanied by body aches. We need to actively go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination and treatment.

By checking blood routine and urine routine, we can discover various hidden diseases in our body, and then actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment according to our actual situation. This examination method is relatively simple and the price is not high.
