Hello,
Blood in the urine can present in one of two ways: gross hematuria (blood that you can see in the urine), and microscopic hematuria (blood that is only seen when the urine is examined under a microscope). Both types can have serious causes and need to be investigated.
So please get a detailed examination done from a urologist.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
wouldn't a doctor have ordered testing if there was a problem ?
Hello,
Blood in urine is known as hematuria. Most often it is related to urinary tract problems like kidney stones, inflammation of urinary tract, renal vein thrombosis, certain kidney tumors and polycystic kidney disease, blood coagulation disorders and anticoagulants.
Diagnostic tests that may be performed include Urinalysis, Urine culture, X-rays of the kidneys, Cystoscopy, IVP, Abdominal ultrasound and CT scan of the abdomen.
The treatment will depend on the cause of the blood in the urine.
So my sincere advice is to get the diagnosis confirmed from a urologist.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
