Mucus followed by some traces of blood also coming through urinary tract which blocks the path. This is due to prostate surgery or any other cause? Presence of albumin in urine signifies which type of problem. Plz provide detail information

Brief Answer:
The first step would be to treat the infection and to evaluate the response

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for writing back. Although prostate surgery could be related, urinary tract infection (UTI) still remains likely, especially with the number of pus cells raised. You would still need to get treated for this UTI. Presence of albumin indicates the same and that the problem could involve the glomerular filtering membranes.
