What Causes Brownish Colored Urine After Having Hysterectomy?

Hi, I had a hysterectomy 3 1/2 weeks ago. About one week ago my urine turned a brownish color. I have had no vaginal discharge at all. Just the start of slight bladder leakage for which I have to wear a liner for. The liner and the toilet paper after wiping are this brownish color. No pain, no fever, only drink water and splenda sweetened iced tea. Is this normal or should I ho to the doctor sooner than my post op appointment?
