What Does Presence Of Blood In Urine Indicate?

What causes blood in urine of 66 YO white male. He has no pain or any other signs or symptoms. He had prostatectomy in November of 2015, but follow up has been fine. He did have 36 radiation treatments of radiation following surgery. Never mind. Obviously you don t really care.

Hi,

As you have mentioned that he have had radiation so I believe that he had cancer of the prostate.
If he has blood in urine he definitely needs and ultrasound of kidney and urinary bladder.
I would also advise a cystoscopy to look inside the urinary bladder.

Wishing him an early recovery.

Regards.
