Brief Answer:
Urine test should be done

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear.
I have gone through your question and understand the concerns.
Redness in the urine can be due to some drug you are taking or due to blood in the urine.
Blood in the urine can be due to infection or any pathology in the kidney or urinary bladder.
I will suggest you to get a urine routine and microscopic examination done to confirm the diagnosis and get further treatment accordingly.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
