I do not have any of the medical conditions mentioned.

this is the second day that i have seen it and now a few small clotts have appeared.

it only comes out bright red with dark red clotts when i try to uninate.

I just have a feeling of pressure and bloting. I have to wait to see the doctor

and he does not want me to go to the emergency room so I thought you can help

ACCEPTED

Well, blood in your urine is always an emergency. I strongly suggest you press him to get an appointment no later than tomorrow morning or just go to the ER and get personally examined. This way you can also get your urine examined in order to find out what is the exact cause and the best treatment for you.

Do not wait longer than today to seek medical attention. Specially if you continue with blood in your urine or if you notice the volume increase or you feel weak.

This is really the only advice I can give you without being able to personally see you. Please seek professional care as soon as possible.

I hope this answers your question. Please get back to me if you need further input. Do not hesitate to ask any more questions you might have. Best of luck, and once again, thank you for trusting us with your question.
