What are the consequences of presence of E.coli and albumen in urine ?
Patient: my urine examination has showed up albumen value 3 plus and its culture has shown growth of e.coli in it after 48 hrs.what does this indicate and what are its consequences?how can this be treated?please help me to know about it.. Doctor: Hi,Welcome to HCM.The urine report suggest urinary tract infection,you need to take antibacterial drug to reduce the infection and have plenty of fluids.If untreated you may develop fever associated with chills etc.For albumin in urine further evaluation of kidney function has to be done like serum creatinine to rule out kidney disorder.Take care.
