Hello,
A mucus thread found in a urine sample is NOT abnormal. Mucus forms on the inside lining of the bladder and comes out of the bladder when a person urinates.
What did Dr. Serwer say about your infant son's eye infection? Is your son being treated with any medicine?
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Arnold Zedd, Pediatrician
