Hello,
The painless hematuria in diabetic patient warrants underlying urinary infection or other disorder of urinary system.
He must be taken to ER (Emergency Room) for evaluation with urine microscopy, ultrasound of the kidney, ureter, and bladder for further definite management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
