Hi,

Thanks for the query.

Considering the medical history and past treatment offered to your son, the likely cause of blood in his urine is probably urine culture and sensitivity; pelvic ultrasound with post void residue analysis. Treatment with broad spectrum antibiotic is entailed. His primary physician can guide you with these tests.

In addition, drinking plenty of water will benefit in reducing the symptoms.

I will be able to assist further once the results of the aforementioned test are available.

Hope I have answered your query. Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.

Regards
