Sometimes if we don’t collect urine sample in a proper way ,it may show epithelial cells and bacteria in routine microscopy. You can go for urine culture it is much more sensitive

2. It can be to due to garstroesophageal reflex -for the that you need to see a gastroenterologist
3. It can be due to infect
