Small trace of Blood in Urine...UTI? Posted: 08-01-06 09:34am
My question is that i am wondering if i
have UTI, Urinary Tract Infection. About 2
days ago, i started to feel sort of a
burning pain when i urinate. There is also
a stronger odour when i urinate now. One
time, i think i saw a small trace of blood
in my urine too. Is this UTI? If so, i
would be able to wait a few days to see if
it passes, or do i have to go to the
doctors immediately?

It seems likely that you are experiencing
a urinary tract infection (UTI) where the
urethra is affected (urethritis). You can
visit your GP (general physician) for a
diagnosis and treatment.
