Brief Answer:
Yes you should

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us. I can understand your concern.

Blood in semen at age of 52 is not normal. It can be due to inflammation of prostate or testicle. There can be other pathology of prostate also. Better to consult surgeon soon for examination and evaluation. Ultrasound and prostate specific antigen (PSA) are required likely.

Hope I have answered your query, I will be happy to help further.

Regards,
Dr Chintan Solanki.
