Hematuria

Hematuria means blood in the urine. Blood cells can be detected in urine samples even if the patient does not see blood while urinating. Hematuria can be a symptom of a urinary tract infection, a kidney stone, or a more serious medical problem such as kidney or bladder cancer. If white blood cells also are found in the urine, infection is suspected. Kidney stones usually cause intense pain. Prolonged strenuous physical activity can cause hematuria. Any visible blood in the urine should be investigated by a medical professional. To maintain a healthy urinary tract: Urinate when you feel the urge Urinate immediately after intercourse When using toilet paper, wipe front to back Recommended vitamins: Vitamin A: 5,000 to 10,000 IU daily Read more at www.altmeds.com
