Causes of plasma excretion in urine in men

The presence of plasma in the urine of males tends to indicate that the body has undergone inflammatory processes, or infection from the external environment. Bloody discharge from the urethra is not a disease, but an alarming symptom. With such a turnover, the color range of urine can vary from a pale pink to a burgundy hue, with an exacerbation of pathology, dark bloody clots are released.

The number of clots during the emptying of the urethra indicates the degree of disruption of the activity of certain organs. Discharge of plasma with urine is referred to by medical researchers as hematuria. When, when passing tests, bloody impurities are easily detected - this stage of the pathology is called macrohematuria, and the case when they are detected only with in-depth medical and laboratory studies is called microhematuric.

Medical statistics have more than a hundred different reasons for the manifestation of various degrees of hematuria. In fact, 19% of males have bloody discharge from the urethra due to cancer. Therefore, as soon as a man discovers blood in himself at the end of urination, he must immediately go to the clinic for further study of the pathologies of the body, because most cases show that a timely visit to the doctor facilitates and accelerates the process of complete remission.

The most common causes of hematuria

Blood during urination in men characterizes the reasons that can be caused by adverse diseases:

• Infection of the urethra. The bacteria seep through the urethral canal, where the infection multiplies in the ureter, causing blood clots.
• Infection of the renal area (pyelonephritis). It is activated when the bacterial flora reaches the kidneys from the plasma or urinary duct and causes blood in men.
• Pathology of the renal region (glomerulonephritis). It is characterized by inflammatory processes of the systems that promote active renal filtration.
• Kidney stones. The stone rubs the tissue membrane of nearby organs, and a wound with constant bleeding is formed. If there are large kidney stones, blockage and damage to the urethra may occur.
• Enlargement of the prostate gland. With reaching a certain age, males begin to expand the tissues of the prostate with pain. This constricts the urinary tract and partially blocks urinary flow.
• Oncological diseases. The presence of malignant cells in the urinary tract, renal region or urethral canal violates the integrity of the tissue membrane, and constant bleeding is formed. Since a cancerous tumor tends to grow constantly, it requires large reserves of plasma. Due to the formation of new microvessels that cannot withstand the growth of the tumor, bursting, blood flows are formed leading to the urethra, blood flows.
• Excessive muscle load. When doctors see that urine has bloody streaks, they put forward the opinion that blood during urination in men manifested itself due to the fact that the bladder is slightly damaged, dehydrated, or blood cells are destroyed in it. This pathology is observed in athletes as a result of intense training. Groin pain
• Traumatic blows. Injuries to the kidney area can activate bleeding in male urine. The reason is that when the kidney strikes, the plasma leaving it pours out through the tissue area, or exits through the urethra with urine.
• Urethritis. Pathology is provoked by hypothermia, or damage to the penis. This case involves the release of plasma from the urethral canal in males.

Inflammatory processes in the area of the urethra. Cystitis, as a disease, can promote the release of plasma after urination in men.

Symptoms of pathologies that cause spotting

Symptoms indicating pathologies that are accompanied by hematuria indicate the presence of certain diseases in men.

Some of them are:

• Frequent urge to empty the urethra, which indicates an abnormality in the renal region. A systematic urge to urinate and unpleasant odors from urine indicate kidney disease. If you consider the possibility of infection of the kidney area, you need to check the urine for the presence of plasma, mucous secretions and sediments. Possibly painful formation on the sides, fever, nausea or vomiting, incontinence. Often, such sensations are taken for body poisoning, inflammation of the appendix, or low intestinal permeability. Kidney pain may indicate that the kidney area is clogged with formed stones.Urolithiasis causes an increased number of red blood cells, renal hemorrhage begins, urine turns pink or red.
• Enlargement of the prostate gland. A painful sensation is formed after urination, a painful, systematic urge to empty the urinary tract, visible, as well as microscopic plasma discharge along with urine. Inflammation of the prostate gland is characterized by the same symptoms.
• The appearance of plasma clots during the emptying of the urethra, a systematic urge, even in men without pain, can be recognized as an alarming sign of the formation of oncological tumors.
• Bloody discharge from the penis after intercourse indicates a probable traumatic phenomenon of the urethra. In the case when blood is systematically excreted from the urinary tract, there is a possibility of damage to the wall of men without pain. Headache
• Pain during urination, discomfort in the urethral canal area, discharge of pus with blood, plasma residues on underwear, signal the presence of urethritis.
• Systematic urination with plasma impurities, blood during urination, mucus, which are accompanied by a burning sensation with pain, cramps, as well as pain in the pubic region, an ammonia aroma emanating from urine indicates the spread of inflammatory processes of the mucous membranes of the urinary tract (pyelitis, cystitis, nephritis ). Although it is worth noting that cystitis affects men much less often than females, often middle-aged, it becomes difficult for them to urinate.

Uncomfortable and painful symptoms before and after urination should not be ignored by men. It is worth immediately referring to medical examinations in order to identify the causes of disturbing painful symptoms, then write therapeutic recipes.

Methods for diagnosing hematuria

Diagnostics of the discharge of plasma from urine involves the collection of the following tests and examinations when a man has pain and blood when urinating:

• Study of urinary fluid for possible infection. At first, the health worker must refer the patient to an analysis in order to determine the focus of the appearance of red impurities. Bloody urine in men indicates a possible infection of the urethra, or identifies minerals that cause kidney stones.
• It is recommended to undergo a computed tomography examination, which is able to recognize cross-sectional images of the inside of a man's body.
• Magnetic resonance imaging helps to map internal organs using magnetic fields and radio waves.
• Ultrasound examination of the renal region, bladder.
• A cystoscopic method, using a camera to visualize the bladder, urethra for further diagnosis of the existing pathology.
• If the process of urination has become difficult, accompanied by sensations of pain or cramps, and going to the doctor at that time is impossible, you must first pass the express test yourself at home. Such tests are carried out in the early morning, on an empty stomach. When the Control Test Strip indicates the presence of bloody matter, it indicates that the urethra needs medication. Using home tests for self-diagnosis is extremely useful, as it is a way to immediately identify the disease for further outpatient therapy.

Sometimes the color of urine can change due to the consumption of large quantities of vegetables by men. In the morning, urine can also have different colors, therefore, during an outpatient examination, it is necessary to have a medical history of the patient. If in doubt about the diagnosis, additional tests may be needed to confirm previous studies. In this case, write a list of previously passed tests, so as not to repeat.
