What Causes Blood Urine When Diagnosed With Prostate Hyperplasia?
I passed blood in my urine three days ago, and for the last two days I have passed black flecks, I have prostate hyperplasia but my consultant doesn t want to see me until February should I be worried? I have seen my local doctor and he has sent a specimen to the hospital.
I have gone through your query and can understand your concern.
Blood in the urine is very common in long standing benign hypertrophy of prostate, or enlarged prostate. In males urinary tract passes through middle of prostrate gland. when prostrate becomes significantly large, it could cause urinary retention & eventually bleeding. Also it increases the chance of urinary tract infection Are you taking medicines for your prostate. if not you may have to start medicines as soon as possible. Also get an ultrasound done to check for stones and a routine urine examination. Consult a urologist to decide on medical or surgical management.
Hope this information helps
