Do Kidney Stones Always Have Blood In Urine. Hematuria means blood in the urine. A urine test can show kidney stone forming minerals in your pee.
Visible blood in the urine gross hematuria. I do not have a uti the test was negative. Kidney stones develop when high levels of salt and other minerals in the urine stick together.
As the stones grow they may eventually become large enough to irritate either the lining of the kidney or the ureter the tube connecting the kidney to the bladder and cause injury to the local cells and capillaries.
I recommend a 7 day course of antibiotics like cipro to see if this stops your pain. Sometimes kidney stones are incidentally detected by the presence of microscopic hematuria blood in the urine. I do not have blood in my urine though. I m pretty sure i have kidney stones.
