Ascorbic acid in the urine is irrelevant. Not sure why it was done in the first place.

Normally nobody reports ascorbic acid and its irrelevant. Just, get a repeat urine routine and microscopy next time, if there is repeated fever without any other focus of infection, to rule out repeated urinary tract infections. That, warranties revisit to a pediatrician, for proper reassessment of child and added checkups further as per protocol for repeated uti( ultrasound of kidneys and urine c/s). All the best
