Hi, Thanks for writing in. It is important to confirm if you are having blood in urine or there is any wound in your urinary opening. The cause of bleeding can be a benign or malignant cause. The symptoms of cancer in the urinary tract are the following. Bleeding in urinates can be accompanied by or without painLymph node swelling in groin regionDifficulty in passing urineUnexplained loss of weight It will help to do an ultrasound of your abdomen and pelvis with focus on the urinary system. The urinary bladder needs complete evaluation. The urologist might suggest you to get a cystoscopy done and this will pick up any suspicious area in the urinary bladder. If any such area is found then a biopsy will also be done to confirm the finding. Please do not worry.
