Detailed Answer:
Good Day and thank you for being with Healthcare Magic!

The most common cause of blood in the urine is still infection followed closely by stone disease. I would recommend doing a urinalysis and a kidney urinary bladder ultrasound to check for other causes of blood in the urine.

While waiting for the results I would suggest drinking plenty of water around 2liters per day and see a GP or a urologist for him to interpret the results and possibly write you a prescription.

I hope I have succeeded in providing the information you were looking for. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications at: http://www.HealthcareMagic.com/doctors/dr-manuel-c-see-iv/66014 I would gladly help you. Best wishes.
