Very likely - blood in the urine is a hallmark of kidney stones, although it is almost always accompanied by pain, and there are other possible causes. If you are seeing blood without any pain, you should see a doctor right away.
Yes
Yes, kidney stones can cause blood to appear in the urine Your should do either a Renal Ultrasound or a Ct scan abomen/pelvis w/o contrast to rule out kidney stones.
