Will Stones In Kidney Cause Urine To Be Red In Colour?
Hi Doctor,
My sister is 19 years old. She had the problem of Kidney stones one year back and she had got this treatment of Flush theraphy.
3 days back she found that urine is red in colour. The microscopic examination of her urine analysis has pus cells 6-9/ hpf and epithelial cells 9-10 hpf.
Is this because of kidney stones or because of infection?

Hello sir
what u asking about the red coloured urine
It may be due to either infection alone or stone with secondary infection
so better get an ultrasound of abdomen for renal stones
You did not specify if urine is homogenous red or at the end of micturition slightly red or initial flow was red as all these are significant
anyways it's better to show it to your doctor
