Hi
Welcome to the forum. I went through your detailed history.
Bleeding could be due to infection, stones or enlarged prostate.
He needs urgent evaluation by a urologist.
He needs physical examination, urine analysis, ultrasound scan.
Cystoscopy may also be necessary.
Based on the results treatment needs to be given,
best regards
