Burning urination and lower flank soreness
I have a recurring condition that has been going on for 3 years. A few times a month there will be a period when I feel a burning sensation while urinating. The burning is mild and not painful. There is also flank pain, when pressed, under rib cage on both sides that won't go away. Recent health checkup found miniscule amounts of blood in the urine as well. Blood tests are normal. Please advise!
Thanks in advance.

Hi, thank you for the advice! Have you looked into Candida Diet? I wonder if this is a real condition about Candida overgrowth, but I will try it and see!
BTW, my CT scan came out negative. No kidney stones or anything.

I had to same thing for years before I was diag with Interstitial Cysitis (IC) I had small amounts of blood in my urine for a long time which was just dismissed. I had alot of pelvic pain which lead me to many gynocologist and exploratory surgeries etc. Finally after one surgery my bladder did not wake up which lead them to investigate and I was diag pretty quickly with IC.

Hello,
To investigate microscopic hematuria, you can get an ultrasound and a CT scan or cystoscopy done. You should go ahead with the investigations that your urologist has proposed.
Hope it helps. Take care and regards.
