A member asked:

Have cancer and a stent in kidney and i'm bleeding when i pee. what do i do?

Not unusual: The stent, by itself, can irritate the kidney tube(ureter) and cause bleeding. You might also have an infection and should get a urine culture and sensitivity to see if antibiotics would be helpful.

See Urologist: Urinary bleeding and cancer would suggest that you need to see a urologist.
