Hematuria may occur with or without other symptoms. When symptoms are present, they may include:

• Pink, red, or brown-colored urine
• Pain or burning with urination
• Frequent urination
• Urgency to urinate
• Flank or abdominal pain

Some patients have hematuria detected only on routine urine testing and feel otherwise well.

Your doctor will diagnose hematuria by reviewing your medical history, performing a physical exam, and ordering urine tests. Imaging studies of the kidneys and urinary tract may be performed to look for stones, tumors, or other abnormalities.

In many cases, cystoscopy is recommended to directly examine the bladder and urethra to identify the source of bleeding.

Treatment depends on the underlying cause of hematuria. Some causes require no treatment, while others may require medication, procedures, or surgery. Identifying the cause of hematuria is essential to guide appropriate care and rule out serious conditions.
