What Causes Yellow Urine Along With Stinging Sensation During Urination?

!y son ran into a half cement wall and hit on his lower right front ribs and below. He is not dehydrated but started with dark yellow urine tonight, feeling like he really has to go, barely goes, and it stings. Like a bladder infection. Can all this be caused by the accident. Plus his side is hurting worse. Should we take him to ER?

Hi
I've gone through your query and I understand quite well your concern
Based on what you referred to me, your son has experienced a traumatic injury that has affected the urinary tract and maybe its organs or his male genitalia.
These organs can be damaged along with other internal organs when someone suffers massive multi-systems trauma from auto accidents.The external genitalia and the urethra can also be damaged with site-specific trauma that can be fairly minor.
As a result of this trauma, his urine has turned in a darker yellow colour cause of the presence of blood in it called hematuria. Hematuria can result from injury anywhere along the genito-urinary tract and multiple urologic injuries can coexist. The mechanism, location and severity of this trauma lead to the need and the type of further diagnostic evaluation or therapeutic intervention.
You should consult immediately consult an urologist and your son should perform diagnostic imaging : an abdominal-pelvic CT first to evaluate which part of the genito-urinary tract is damaged.

Hope this is helpful to you,
Dr. Ermira Biu
