most prolly she has a urine infection or disorder in the urinary tract or bladder of some sort. however, it may be something more serious, so you shouldn't wait, tell ur mom to see a doctor. hopefully she'll be fine, don't worry. =)

Well when I was younger, in my teens, I had really bad pains in my lower back. Went to the doctor the next day and they examined me and wanted me to give a urine sample. I proceeded to the bathroom to fill the cup. When I was finished, I looked, and the entire cup was red!!!! As my unsteady hand handed the cup to the doctor....I was already freaking out saying.."this does not look right, what's wrong with me???'' Well it just ended up being a kidney infection that can be treated with antibiotics. It was scary though, but i was also young..well not that young I'm only 23 now. But mostly nothing to worry about, plus it most likely be menopause.

Blood in the urine could be the indication of many things... the most commone being kidney problems. Does your Mom complain about lower back pain when she urinates... or even when she is just moving about? If so, there is a possibility that she may passing a kidney stone. There could also be a bladder infection. Hopefully, your Mom is seeing her doctor about this.

There are a number of things that can cause blood in the urine, from minor to major. A doctor will be able to do additional testing to determine the cause. Common causes are: infections, injuries to the urinary system, kidney stones, urinary track blockages, cancer, certain medications, or chronic diseases like diabetes or sickle cell anemia.

Probably an infection that can easily be taken care of with medication. Don't worry............worry can't help a bit. She is obviously in a doctor's care, so I'm quite certain everything is under control. As long as your mother goes back to the doctor and follows his instruction, she will be fine. :)

Probably nothing too serious.
Most likely a bladder infection, a urinary tract infection, of some type. Has she had painful urination?
Worry is tax on a problem before it is one and maybe will not be one.
It will be ok I am sure. She has a handle on it, so don't worry.

Usually blood in the urine means that there is a bladder infection, other than that I'm not sure what else it could be.
