Having Pain In Kidney, Swollen Kidney, Stinging Urethra, Black And Red Flakes In Urine. What Should I Do?

For several several months I have had very bad pains in my kidneys they feel very swollen and hurt. I get very bad stinging from my urethra and i have black and red flakes that come out in my urine . Yesterday I was able to pick up one of these flakes to examine it and it looks just a scab and its red like blood . It was very hard. Also usually when they take urine samples from me i almost always have blood in my urine. But the urine never comes back with any infection . What should I do?

Urologist,  's  Response
Hello
Thanks for your query.Based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have painless hematuria since a long time and needs to be investigated in details

It is most likely to be due to Glomerular disease of the kidney( Glomerulonephritis).

Please consult qualified Nephrologist for clinical evaluation and get following investigations done under his guidance.
1) Urine routine and Culture with total proteins excreted in 24 hours.
2) Ultrasound scanning of abdomen \
3) C.T.Scan of urinary system.
4) Endoscopic examination by a Urologist.
5) Blood Coagulation profile .

Further treatment will depend upon results of these tests and final diagnosis.
