Hi,
Based on presence of blood in urine, the exact diagnosis cannot be given. It can be urinary tract infection or stone in urinary tract.
The stone also can lead such problem.
So it's advisable to investigate further with urine routine microscopic examination and USG scan abdomen and pelvis.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
