Hematuria is the medical name for blood in the urine. Hematuria can be visible (called gross), or only visible by a microscope. There are many causes of hematuria including infections, inflammation, trauma, stones, and tumors. Dr. Reznicek from Pacific Northwest Urology Specialists describes some of the many causes of hematuria as well as the recommended workup.

Workup usually consists of imaging of the kidneys and the bladder and then a cystoscopic examination (camera into the bladder).

Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) is very common in the world today. Especially among the age group of young people or in the age group of elderly people. The first and most common symptom is burning in urination. The second most common symptom is the increased frequency of urination.

Dr. Sudeep Singh Sachdeva, Consultant Nephrologist, Hypertension and Renal Transplant Expert at Narayana Superspeciality Hospital, Gurugram explains the Urinary Tract Infection and the treatment options available for the patients.
