General & Family Physician, Dr. Vasudha's Response
Hi, Thanks for the query. I understand your concern. Heavy work outs causes strong muscular damage ( specially red muscle fibers).. the myoglobulin in the fiber gets excreted through urine... so the burning after first urination after hard work out. The appearance of red urine is in a way alert ring to decrease the work out. Thanks.
