A member asked:

Been having uti symptoms for 4 weeks, no infection but blood in urin, very small stone. now have to take cipro (ciprofloxacin) 500 2x day for 3 weeks. is this ok?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Infection?: Did you have a urine culture? That is the proper way to identify a uti. Blood in the urine with negative culture requires a hematuria work up. See a urologist.
