Brief Answer: yes. Detailed Answer: Hi, Liver is the place where clotting factors are synthesized and platelet function is moderated. Inflammed liver can have problems dealing with blood clotting and can result in bleeding manifestations, one of which is blood in urine. However, they could be two different problems like a kidney stone and mild viral hepatitis (inflammation of liver ) or alcoholic hepatitis. Hope i am clear.
