Brief Answer:
Yes, could be the same the same thing!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this blood that you have reported in rune. Kidney stones are known to cause blood in urine. This is because they traumatize the urinary passages and cause minor bleeding just like when you sustain a wound and it bleeds. If this is the first time you have observe this and you have no other symptoms, all I will recommend is that you monitor a little longer.

If the blood is in much quantities and continues, then there would be a good reason for you to get examined and do some investigations to understand what the exact cause is. Beside kidney stones that can cause blood in urine, bladder and kidney disease can do.

Please, drink much water. This is important in reducing the probability of urine getting too concentrated and favoring the formation of kidney stones. Also, this helps to was out any stone if there is any.

What is the interval between the stone being removed and this observation? For how long have you been seeing blood in your urine?

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
