Urine pH 5.0, this belongs to acidic urine. Show acidic urine suspected of urinary tuberculosis, this is the need to do urine sediment smear acid-fast staining, to find whether there are acid-fast bacilli. When doing acid-fast bacilli test, mainly morning urine, morning urine positive rate is relatively high, at least 3 times need to do the test, if acid-fast bacilli are found, the possibility of tuberculosis is very high. If mycobacteria can be found in the urine, a definite diagnosis of urinary tuberculosis can be made and prompt anti-tuberculosis treatment is required.
