Hello.

This urine report is absolutely normal unless she has any urinary symptoms such as burning in micturition, fever with chills and increased frequency of urination.

Upto 5 pus cells per hpf are normal.

Have you shown your daughter to an orthopedician or a pediatrician ? Check for Vitamin D deficiency (rickets). Has she been exposed to chickungunya infected person ?

How old is your daughter ? Are the joints tender to touch ? Have you checked for the Rheumatoid Factor (RA factor) in blood ? It is done to diagnose arthritis. How about ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) and CRP (C Reactive Proteine) ?

Regards
