Seeing blood in your child's urine (hematuria) can be alarming. According to available information, here are some common reasons why this might be happening:
Common causes include:
- Bladder or kidney infections: Infections can irritate the urinary tract and cause bleeding.
- Kidney stones: These hard deposits can cause pain and bleeding as they move through the urinary tract.
- High levels of calcium and other minerals in the urine: Sometimes, excess minerals in the urine can lead to irritation and bleeding.
It's crucial to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment. Do not attempt to self-diagnose or treat your child.
