Brief Answer:
Hello. It may be stone or cancer

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear. I have gone through the details. So the most likely cause of bleeding in urine is either stone in bladder or kidney or cancer. Else it may be urinary infection. You require further evaluation in the form of either a ctscan or mri and urine examination.
Thanks and regards
