Hi,
Hematuria may occur without any other symptoms. Some underlying causes, however, are associated with additional symptoms that can be moderate to severe. These include:
1. Bladder infections (acute cystitis). In adults, bladder infections usually cause burning or pain with urination.
2. Kidney infections (
pyelonephritis). Symptoms may include fever, chills, and flank pain, which refers to pain in the lower back.
3. Kidney stones. Symptoms may include severe abdominal or pelvic pain.
4. Kidney diseases. Symptoms may include weakness,
high blood pressure, and body swelling, including puffiness around the eyes.
Common causes of blood in urine include:
1. Bladder or kidney infections
2. Bladder or kidney stones
3. Certain kidney diseases, such as inflammation in the filtering system of the kidneys (
glomerulonephritis)
4. Inherited diseases such as
sickle cell anemia and cystic kidney disease
5. Certain medications such as Aspirin, Penicillin, Heparin,
Cyclophosphamide, and Phenazopyridine
6. A tumor in the bladder, kidney, or prostate
7. Kidney injury from an accident or sports
8. Vigorous exercise
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
