Passing Blood While Urinating. Prescribed Antibiotics For Bacterial Infection. Blood In Stools On Stopping. Reason?

My husband when he urinates passes blood . He has been passing blood for about 6 weeks. His doctor trated him for a baterial infection and on the 9th day of a 10 day antibiotic it stopped. Then a week later he started passing blood through his stool . The blood is bright red first thing in the morning and then he begins to clear. He has had no pain when he urinates or has a bowel movements. Any suggestions?

Urologist,  's  Response
I would certainly suggest that he gets some basic investigations. The urine, preferably early in the morning, should be analyzed by a cytologist for the kind of cells that are being voided. An ultrasound study of abdomen and an estimate of post void urine will be definitely useful. Also suggest that a urine culture be done. We would also like to know if he is on blood thinner medicines or has there been a recent onset of bleeding tendency.
Please let me know if you require further clarifications.
