Urinating Red Blood, Pain In Left Kidney And Lower Abdomen, Heavy Smoker, Consumes Marijuana, Cocaine. What Can Be The Cause ?
Thanks for posting your query here.
Infections, renal stones and even renal growths are known to cause hematuria (blood in the urine), A proper physical examination and through investigations are entailed to rule each of these conditions. The investigations that may be needed are urine analysis, ultrasound abdomen, X XXXXXXX KUB, CT scan abdomen, etc. Also blood coagulation profile should be done to rule out and bleeding disorders.
I encourage you to consult a competent urologist under who's guidance you may get the aforementioned tests done.
It would be better if these tests are done as early as possible. Hence I recommend you to consult a doctor as soon as possible. "His conditions warrants immediate attention."
Cocaine abuse could also be a associated cause. Visiting a drug rehabilitation clinic will also benefit him.
Hope my answers are both adequate and informative. Should you have any additional queries, I will be available to address them.

Also, what are you thoughts on natural home remedy to dissolve stones
If it turns out to be that? It seems he has lost blood daily, but is not in any pain.
I was truly shocked to see how red his urine is. A lot of blood. He's been stubborn to go get checked. Go figure! I will see to it that he gets seen ASAP.
Thanks for follow up.
Drug abuse can change the colour of urine sometimes, but its usually not XXXXXXX blood. But it has potential to cause damage to the urinary system.
If it turns out, that your son has XXXXXXX hematuria (blood in the urine), the possibly there is a underlying pathological disorder in the genito-urinary system. All the male genito urinary problems have to be investigated till the particular cause is found. This is very important. Flesh sample are mostly from Bladder and structures distal to bladder.
As far as home remedies go, I cannot comment on that since i'm an allopathic doctor and dont have any experience or knowledge about naturopathy.
You could consult a naturopathy expert if you want but my sincere advice is to consult a Nephrologist. Ultrasound of the KUB, Urinalysis if necessary a CT scan of the abdomen are necessary. I strongly suggest to get professional help from an Addiction Medicine Specialist if your son abuse drugs.
Wish him Good Health.
