Brief Answer:
infection, sludge, stones, trauma

Detailed Answer:
Hi ,

The presence of blood in urine is indicating that the mucosa of urinary tract is being lacerated.

This could be due to :
- infection
- sludge
- stones
- trauma

An accurate clinical examination together with abdominal ultrasound will help determine the right cause and treat it adequately.

For the moment, I advise to increase water intake and take urinary antiseptics containing cranberry or ferny stone.

Hope it answered to your original query.
