Dear Madam ,
Thank you for posting your query on HCM.
Well looking into your problem I would like to tell you that your treating doctor is right in saying that there is nothing to be done with this report . Your urine report has no gross abnormality that is alarming . Pus cell 4-5 can be seen without actual infection in females.
You are rightly being advised to keep your self hydrated which prevents the chances of UTI . You can also take cranberry juice which alkalinise the urine preventing infection. There is nothing to be done extra for this report .
Take care.

Dear Madam,
Sometimes during mild infection above findings can occur but they are not significant enough . There can be chances of renal stone but that cannot be made out by urine examination , you need to get a USG abdomen done for that.
