https://www.merckmanuals.com/professional/genitourinary-disorders/voiding-disorders/urinary-retention If you mother is older than 65 60 is ok. If her urinalysis normal it is unlikely to be an infection but would consider an entity called interstitial cystitis. https://www.niddk.nih.gov/health-information/urologic-diseases/interstitial-cystitis-painful-bladder-syndrome/diagnosis

Any hematuria in a mature woman should be investigated by a Urologist. Infection is when a urine culture is positive and you have not mentioned that. It is not life threatening but she should see a Urologist
