Hello,

Suggestive of kidney stone until proved otherwise.

Blood in the urine could be due to stone, inflammation or infection of the urinary tract, kidney disease, or enlarged prostate.

You are advised to consult your doctor for further evaluation which may include urine analysis, an ultrasound or CT scan to rule out above conditions.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali
