I've found blood in my urine?

Question

A couple of days ago, Monday, there was blood in my urine. I was extremely busy moving the four days before and had very little to eat and drink, with almost no water. I worked about eighteen hour days in the heat of the summer lifting and carrying furniture and doing all the things that come with moving into a new house. I was just wondering if extreme dehydration and/or exhaustion can cause blood to appear when I urinate. There is no pain involved.

Answer 1

Dehydration may be the culprit of this situation because when there is not any liquid in your body to function on it will resort to the nearest liquid resource. Keep yourself hydrated all the times.

I was really really sick due to dehydration, my house was an inferno I did not have any ac to cool me off, I woke up the next day and did not even drink water instead I drank coffee big mistake after 2 or 3 hours I felt like garbage tired and internal fever the next mourning I started developing canker sores and blisters around my mouth, I went to the doctor to do a blood work out and urine, and my urine came with traces of blood I did not know how that happened anyways after 3 months I went back and the blood in my urine disappear so yes dehydration is the cause that you will find blood in urine, if the body does not have water then it will start looking for other types of liquids in your body like blood etc, rest assure blood in urine while dehydration is the cause guaranteed!!

.
Hematuria is the presence of red blood cells (RBCs) in the urine. In microscopic hematuria, the urine appears normal to the naked eye, but examination under a microscope shows a high number of RBCs. Gross hematuria can be seen with the naked eye -- the urine is red or the color of cola.

Several conditions can cause hematuria. Most of the causes are not serious. For example, exercise may cause hematuria that goes away in 24 hours. Many people have hematuria without having any other related problems. But because hematuria may be the result of a tumor or other serious problem, a doctor should be consulted.

In order to find the cause of hematuria, or to rule out certain causes, the doctor may order a series of tests, including urinalysis, blood tests, intravenous pyelogram, and cystoscopic examination.

Urinalysis is the examination of urine for various cells and chemicals. In addition to finding RBCs, the doctor may find white blood cells that signal a urinary tract infection or casts (groups of cells molded together in the shape of the kidneys' tiny filtering tubes) that signal kidney disease. Excessive protein in the urine also signals poor kidney function.

Blood tests may reveal kidney disease if the blood contains high levels of wastes that the kidneys are supposed to remove.

An intravenous pyelogram (IVP) is an x-ray of the urinary tract. An IVP may reveal a tumor, a kidney or bladder stone, an enlarged prostate, or other blockage to the normal flow of urine.

A cystoscope can be used to take pictures of the inside of the bladder. It has a tiny camera at the end of a thin tube, which is inserted through the urethra. A cystoscope may provide a better view of a tumor or bladder stone than can be seen with an IVP.

Treatment for hematuria depends on the cause. If no serious condition is causing the hematuria, no treatment is necessary

Well, I agree with everyone else who is saying urinary tract infection, especially since you say that it gets better when you drink lots of water and worse when you go for the bad diet. But I'm going to spell something else out clearly... you can get a urinary tract infection without having sex! I had a horrendous one after my marriage break-up and I wasn't having sex with anyone. It can also be caused by not wiping correctly (front to back for us girls) or just accidentally getting a bit in the wrong place. You can also get thrush without having sex - I got a bad dose of that too while I was single and that was from too many antibiotics the first time (no choice - I was waiting for my appointment to remove impacted wisdom teeth and kept getting infections) and the second time was something in the wrong place. So don't be worried about that being the only cause - I'd be inclined to tell the doctor that your diet has been quite bad lately and "could that be the cause, Doctor?" - I think it was for me. Now since you feel embarrassed (and I can understand that), follow the advice and drink lots of water and lots of unsweetened cranberry juice, stay off the bad diet and see how you go. But your parents might want to know why you want to drink cranberry juice so maybe you should take your mother aside and let her know that you have an infection, you feel embarrassed to go to the doctor, so can you try diet changes and see if you can get rid of it that way. Mums can be great co-conspirators!! :-) And she may even suggest that it's time you changed doctor to one that isn't a family friend, if there's another in your area. Heck, you're 16! Would they be surprised or upset if you said you'd rather start seeing a different doctor and explained why? It's quite common for people not to want to have a doctor who is also in their personal lives. I'm not sure but I think that good bacteria from yoghurt is also a good thing but I've certainly got rid of an infection by changing my diet and drinking cranberry juice in plenty - if it starts up when you can't get to a doctor, you don't have much choice because untreated the infection can become extremely painful. Make sure you don't avoid going to the toilet even though it hurts because that only makes it worse. And last but not least - unless your boyfriend's previous partner had had no previous partners, you're starting to get onto shaky ground where lack of transmission of diseases is concerned (touching the genital area with a hand is enough to spread one of the diseases) so maybe it's time you went and found that doctor of your own and got checked out for sexually transmitted diseases too. All the best! EDIT: While I've been typing you've edited so I'll edit too. Drink the cranberry juice about every second drink and aim to have at least one full glass of something every hour. If the cranberry juice tastes awful (the one I bought did) mix it about 50/50 with water and then treat it like medicine and drink it because you have to. A small amount of pure juice or milk will help get rid of the taste - just a mouthful. If you're drinking 50/50, try and have one each hour. Keep it up for the next couple of days at least and then avoid having a junk diet for at least the next two weeks. Take a drink bottle with you to school so that you can fill it with water and drink whenever you want. Aim to drink up to 1 litre each school day during school hours (you might not succeed but it's a good goal but at least get through 1/2 litre) and then drink plenty before and after school.

Answer 6

Drink lots of water.

The most painful situation is when the blood clots in your bladder or in your kidney and then has to pass down a narrow tube. OUCH!

You will know about it and you should go to a hospital in that state.

However, drink plenty of water right now and arrange to see your usual doctor.

He/She might be able to take a urine test and check you over, and if they are clever they may be able to sort you out if it is simple matter.

There are other things they might need to refer you to a hospital for - you may need a CT/CAT scan of your abdomen or an ultrasound of your kidneys.

Drink plenty of water
Avoid caffeine and other stimulants which will dehydrate you
Avoid alcohol which will dehydrate you

I'm just wondering?

I'm just wondering if you've found your way to the doctors office, or if you are going to wait till you need to ride in an ambulance?
