Why is the 9-year-old girl's urine test showing high red blood cell and bacterial counts?

Nine-year-old children are in the period of growth. The immunity of children at this age is not that strong. Bad living habits and unreasonable diet structure may make children sick. Therefore, it is necessary for children to undergo physical examinations, and urine testing is also an indispensable part of the physical examination. During the urine test, the 9-year-old girl's red blood cell and bacterial counts were high, which may be due to inflammation. So, why did the 9-year-old girl’s urine test show high red blood cell and bacterial counts?

An increased red blood cell concentration means that there is a higher level of hemoglobin in one liter of blood. Normal hemoglobin is inside the cells. Only when some inflammation occurs, the hemoglobin in the blood cells increases and only anti-inflammatory treatment is needed to restore the hemoglobin to normal. It is necessary for patients to check their white blood cell counts and lymphocyte counts to determine which type of infection caused the inflammation.

Life care: It is recommended to eat less greasy and spicy food, exercise regularly, drink plenty of water, pay attention to hygiene, urinate frequently, and have three meals a day.

Normal urine contains very small amounts of red blood cells. If the red blood cell count in urine routine test is high, it is necessary to consider that it is caused by urinary system diseases, such as urinary tract infection, kidney stones, kidney tuberculosis, etc. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a detailed examination to find out the cause. It is recommended to choose to regularly review urine routine tests, or do a B-ultrasound examination to clarify whether there are stones, etc. After confirmation, consider anti-inflammatory or stone treatment.

The presence of red blood cells in urine is often seen in stones, tumors, urethral bleeding, etc. Moreover, a single urine test cannot explain anything, so it is recommended that the patient have another check-up. If the red blood cell count and bacterial count are still high, it means there is something wrong with the body and the patient is advised to have a color Doppler ultrasound of the urinary system.
