Blood in Urine :
Trace amounts of blood are usually present in the urine, even in healthy individuals. However, the amount of blood in the urine is usually so small that it does not affect the colour of the urine. It is possible for a large amount of blood to be in the urine, resulting in a change in urine colour.
Blood in the urine may be accompanied with symptoms like frequent urination and pain during urination. Other accompanying symptoms may include fever, abdominal pain, chills, lower back pain and vomiting. Some of the possible causes of blood in the urine include infections, bladder inflammation and urinary stone disease. A doctor can find the underlying cause of blood in the urine with tests such as urinalysis, cystoscopy, ultrasound scan and MRI. The treatment of the bleeding depends on the underlying cause, but it usually involves medications.
