Why is there a WBC in urine?

The presence of white blood cells (WBCs) in urine may indicate an infection in the urinary tract or kidneys. WBCs are part of the body's immune response and are typically not present in urine unless there is inflammation or infection present. A urine test can help diagnose the underlying cause of the WBCs in urine.
