Hello dear
Warm welcome to Healthcaremagic.com
I have gone through your concern in depth .
* Certain food or drink can give rise to dark concentrated urine mimicking
as blood not actual bleed .
* Post prostatectomy blood in urine is due to on & off erosion at prostatic
fossa part and friction of mucosa .
Hope this will help you .
