Brief Answer:
Please take some medicines!

Detailed Answer:
Hi! sorry to learn about your adverse reaction to aspirin like blood in urine; however, it could also be related to viral /other urinary infections also!

Hope you already have stopped the medicine and now please take some medicines like combinations of tranexamic acid and mefenamic acids and go for a platelet count of your venous blood, urine examination and take water as usual/larger amount and also take anti-ulcer medicines like famotidine/pantoprazole if stomach is still upset.

Give blood for urea/creatinine also to see if kidneys are severely affected and come back to me with feedback..

wishing you good health.
