Blood In Urine (Hematuria) Health Center

Seeing blood in urine can cause more than a little anxiety, yet blood in urine (hematuria) is not always a matter for concern. Strenuous exercise can cause blood in urine and so can a number of common drugs, including aspirin. Blood in urine can also indicate a serious disorder. There are two main types of hematuria, blood which can be seen is called gross hematuria, and urinary blood which is only visible under microscope is called microscopic hematuria and is only found when the urine is tested. In either case it is important to determine the reason for the bleeding.
