Fleshy substance in urine

My husband has kidney stones and fleshy particles come out, could this be something like a cyst.  He was exposed to parasites in Africa and have been using antibiotics for the past 18 months.  Now he has diabetes.  He has been trying to use herbal formulas to rid his body of the parasites and they seem to be working.  Is there any chance that this might not be serious?

I too have flesh like issues in my urine, some big as thing go down there and some small.  Blood all the time, which is a kidney stone issue.  What are the tissues in the urine ?

Hi
Thanks for writing to the forum!

It can be bladder debris. Parasitic infections like schistosomiasis and filariasis can result in worms in urine which appear as fleshy substances. Infections like trichomoniasis can produce mucus threads in urine. Fungal infections like candidiasis too cause fleshy substance in urine. Bladder cancer, polyps and stones are other reasons.
It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage. Do consult an urologist for this. Collect the urine sample with fleshy substance in it and get it examined at a lab. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
