Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM

You are suffering from hematuria(blood in urine).
Hematuria may be due to many reasons like renal or urinary bladder calculus,urinary tract infection(UTI),tumour etc.
You need proper clinical examination and investigations.
Investigations include routine hemogram,random blood sugar,Renal function test,ultrasound of abdomen.CT Scan can be done if needed.

Ultrasound is very important in screening the probable causes.

Proper treatment depend upon findings.
You should go for proper check-up.


Hope I have answered your question.
