N02: Recurrent and persistent haematuria
N02.0: Recurrent and persistent haematuria : minor glomerular abnormality
If you have blood in your urine this can sometimes turn urine red. But your urine may also look normal. If so, taking a test may be the only way to detect the blood.
You probably have blood in your urine because your kidneys aren’t working properly. There are normally 2 kidneys in the body. They filter blood and create urine. They thus help to detoxify the body. Furthermore, the kidneys regulate the blood pressure and salt content in the blood, among other things.
For example, the kidneys may work properly because they have been damaged as a result of another condition. This may be a hereditary condition or one associated with the immune system. It is also possible to have other symptoms. But it is also possible that you will have no other symptoms.
