A member asked:

Faint blood in the urine what does it mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Various things: Bladder cancer or kidney cancer must be ruled out. If blood is visible, then there is a 25% chance of cancer being present. Once ruled out, bleeding could be an infection, stone, trauma, or abnormal blood vessels.
