Infectious Diseases Specialist, Dr. Arun's Response
Hello,
Thnx to contact us. I understand your concern.
If I am your treating doctor I advice you that urine culture with colony count of less than one lac is not UTI. It wont requires a treatment. Morganella morganii many a time isolate as a saprophytic organisms or Laboratory contaminant . So if the colony count is less, it is not UTI and treatment is not required. I will be happy to answer more of your concerns, kindly know me, Wish you a very good health at health care magic. Dr. Arun Tank. Infectious Disease.
