    All of the other posted suggestions plus possible urinary tract infection. This was common with my grandfather in his 70's.

    I get 2 to 3 UTIs a year because of prostate problems.I've never seen blood tho.I guess your grandad had the same problems huh?

    He just got UTI's, only one time with blood and it only lasted a day.

    ITS PROBABLY KIDNEY STONES. U SHOULD GET THAT CHECKED OUT


     

    Called Hematuria. See

    It can be caused from various things as you will see. You do need to see a Urologist. It can be as simple as a urinary tract infection to cancer of the Prostate. Best to see a doctor now to rule that out.

    There are 100 answers to this question.You need your doctor to sort it out.Could be something simple & easy to fix or could have complications.You didn't mention if you had any pain.I think if it was kidney stones or gravel in the bladder it would be causing you some pain.See you doctor earliest convenience.

    Could be a bladder thing too.. We are not doctors, you need to get to a professional for this.. You don't want to fool around with these things, after all, you're not 25 anymore.. Go to a doctor

    ......THE MAIN PROBLEM IS THAT YOU SHOULD BE ASKING A UROLOGIST, NOT A BUNCH OF STRANGERS ON A BLOG.

    i also think it is kidney stones unless you just had kidney and/or bladder surgery     you better check it out


     

    Regardless of what it is, I guess by now you've figured out you need to see a doctor. GO NOW!
