What Causes Hematuria?

default
Posted on Fri, 21 Mar 2014
Question: My husband has had hematuria for the past two days every time he voids he has a thin stream of blood at the beginning of his void and then nothing further. He has no pain, burning, increased frequency, no fever, no general malaise. I was thinking kidney stones? But there is no pain. Also two years ago he had trouble with impotence and premature ejaculation and then it went away. Could this all be related?
