What is the cause of blood in the urine?

When men have blood in their urine, it means that there is inflammation in the kidney or urinary system. There are many reasons for this inflammation, such as inflammation, infection caused by stones, and the most serious is cancer. If the blood in the urine can be seen with the naked eye, it means that the inflammation is very serious and red blood cells can be seen with the naked eye. At this time, the symptoms must be treated in time. So what is the reason for blood in the urine from the penis?

Generally speaking, occult blood in urine is attributed to the following three reasons: inflammation, stones, and tumors. Regarding inflammation, such as glomerulonephritis, pyelonephritis, cystitis, etc., in addition to hematuria, urine tests may also show occult blood. Stones themselves, whether they are kidney, ureteral or bladder stones, may cause occult blood. Other situations, such as menstrual period, constipation may also cause occult blood.

In addition, tumors can also cause occult blood, such as benign or malignant tumors of the kidney, bladder, and ureter. Of course, older men may have hematuria or occult blood after straining to urinate because of prostate hypertrophy and excessive residual urine, which can easily cause inflammation of the bladder, congestion of blood vessels on the surface of the prostate, and difficulty urinating. In fact, prostate hypertrophy is also a type of tumor. It is a tumor of the prostate, which is enlarged due to hyperplasia. Therefore, tumors in the urinary tract should not be taken lightly. At this time, intravenous pyelography should be performed. If there is no problem with the angiography, transitional cell tumor can be ruled out. Urinalysis should also be checked regularly. If there is still occult blood, you should go to the nephrology department for treatment and perform a renal puncture biopsy if necessary.

The most worrying thing is hematuria caused by nephritis. Many patients, including children, suffer from recurrent attacks due to kidney disease or incomplete treatment of the disease. They have hematuria but cannot find the cause. At this time, proteinuria and edema may also appear. At this time, they should not simply treat the symptoms, but go to a specialist hospital for review and systematic treatment based on the kidney disease and past medical history.

If there is blood in urine, it means that the inflammation is very serious. In this regard, we should pay attention to stones or nephritis. Especially nephritis, we know that nephritis is a very serious kidney disease, and if the kidney disease is not treated well, it is easy to cause lesions. In addition, nephritis will take a lot of time to treat, so when such symptoms appear, it must be actively treated.
