Blood in the urine can be alarming for you. While there are many cases when the cause is not that serious, continuous blood in urine (hematuria) can be a sign of a serious disorder.
Gross hematuria is a condition wherein there is bloody urine. Urinary blood that’s visible only under a microscopic is called hematuria and is only found when your doctor tests your urine. You should determine the cause of the bleeding.
Hematuria means that there is the presence of blood, such as red blood cells, in the urine. It is actually a sign that something is causing bleeding within the genitourinary tract. The source of the bleeding may be from the kidneys, the ureters, the prostate gland in men, the urinary bladder or the urethra, where the urine passes out from the body.
