What Could Cause Pain During Urination?

My 5 yr old son is having painful urination that came back with trace protein and blood. Went to urologist and she couldn t find anything except calcium. They did a first morning calcium and it was right at the number for high. They did a renal u/s and the preliminary results came back normal. They are now doing a 24 hr urine test and he has drank 40oz of liquids today not including the water based foods/fruits he has taken in such as jello and watermellon but his urine output since 7;40 this morning is only 100cc s. Is this something to be really concerned about or should I just wait and talk to urologist tomorrow? Waiting on blood work up also.

Pediatrician,  's  Response
Dear Parent,

Your observation that your son has taken in ~1200cc of fluids and only has an urine output of 100cc is concerning. There can be a few possible causes for this. Your child may be holding back his urge to pee since it's causing him pain or a possible stone may be causing blockage. I suggest that you take your child to the ER immediately without waiting for tomorrow.
