Hello,
In your urine reports, there is a high WBC count. It indicates urine infection or urinary tract infection. To diagnose a UTI please get a complete urine examination and urine culture done. Till then drink plenty of fluids to combat the symptoms of burning during micturition.

I sincerely hope it helps. Take care and regards.

WBC can be caused by many different things including infection.  You can have infection that does not show on the standard test of nitrites but with the  number of epithelial cells /hpf  5- it is most likely not a clean catch, mid stream urine.  I would suggest you redo the urine test and be very careful, it is hard to get a good "sterile" or as sterile as possible urine sample.

More importantly then the UA is the symptoms your experiencing that go along with a
the WBC.  That will tell the doctro more about your clinical situation.

Sorry I couldn't be more help.
