Blood in the urine can be anywhere from kidney to the urethra. This needs to be evaluated by doing urine analysis, imaging studies and also renal function. Please see your family physician.
Thanks.
Possibly a urine infection or kidney stone.

Blood in the urine and back pain in the lower ribs area needs to be taken seriously. They may or may not be related but to determine this and a specific cause you need urine studies and imaging studies. Please consult with your doctor to begin the diagnostic process.
