Yes, possible: Above scenario appears consistent with a passed stone, however you are left with the 2 conditions that contributed, taking a blood thinner and the propensity of forming stones and the risk for another such episode in the future remains high. Make sure all your treating docs are aware of recent events.

Accepted Answer

Hmm...: I bet you've got a little vascular malformation that's grown in your prostatic urethra. Time to get with a urologist. You're a young man, probably in the peak of good health, and pain around there is surely a nuisance. We can figure it out and fix it, I'll bet. Best wishes.

Question 10

everything in my urinalysis was normal but there's trace in protein and non-hemolyzed blood in urine. my doctor isn't concerned. do i go specialist??

Accepted Answer

You could,,,: You could see an internal medicine doctor for a good assessment of these results, or you could see a urologist who might analyze it better but basically tell you the same thing.  Either way it depends on how much of that blood was in the urine and what it could be from.  So if you are really worried, it would be a good idea to see a specialist like a urologist to be sure.  Good luck!
