Hi,
Causes of pain in abdomen along with blood in the urine (
Hematuria) may be multiple. Common causes may be:
*
Urinary tract infection
* Kidney,
ureter or bladder stones
* Prostatic hyperplasia
* Tumors-both benign as well as neoplastic of urinary tract and so many other conditions.
The treatment of hematuria, will depend on the cause. To reach at a precise reason, we may have to go for investigations, which may be urine examination for confirmation of presence of blood in the urine. The blood some times may be present even after long time, in small amounts, which may be confirmed by microscopic examination of urine only.
Therefore repeated examination of urine may be needed, particularly in following the cases of tumors of urinary tract etc. The examination of urine, may also show the presence of pus cells in cases of urine infections.
For visualizing the stones or tumors, imaging like
sonography,
CT scan or MRI etc. may be required. Treatment of hematuria will depend on the cause. For urine infections, antibiotics may be needed. For treatment of stones
lithotripsy or surgical removal may be required. Specific treatment for
prostate enlargement or tumors of urinary tract may be indicated accordingly mostly in association with histopathological findings.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
