Tea colored urine: Tea colored urine is concerning for kidney disease known as nephritic syndrome. The symptoms you are describing warrant immediate medical attention. Please contact your doctor ASAP

Emergency Room: Please see a pediatrician right away, go to an urgent care center, or emergency room. Tea-colored urine is not normal and can result from hepatitis viruses. I am worried he may become dehydrated as well. Urine testing needs to be done at a minimum as soon as possible.
