Hello,

A fiber-like substance in the urine indicates epithelial cell debris either from the urinary bladder or prostate infection in most of the cases.

A urine culture over and above the urine microscopy gives best results to find out the type of pathogen and medications ahead to fix the issue in the best way.

Till you revert back with the report, drink plenty of liquids for best flushing of the urinary system.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
