Brief Answer:
No need to worry
Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
Cancer is the last thing to think of . Such finding isnt indicating any pathology and all you need is to repeat urine analysis in 2 weeks and do kidney ultrasound to rule out stones. Try to drink more fluids,raspberry tea and that's it. If blood in urine become visible then you need to do cystoscopy. Wish you good health. Regards

Detailed Answer:
Yes it would show, but it is possible that stone passed few days ago and then it would cause hematuria anyway.
So it would just be good to check kidney with ultrasound in few weeks.
