Hematuria

The most common cause of blood in urine specifically triggered by jogging or high-impact exercise is kidney stones. Blood in urine that appears after exercise and clears when exercise stops is a strong diagnostic indicator of kidney stones. Persistent or symptomatic hematuria should always be medically investigated to rule out infection, prostate issues, or other pathology. A single episode of post-exercise blood in urine that resolves without other symptoms is likely stone-related and not an emergency. Exercise-induced hematuria can stem from several causes including urinary tract infections, enlarged prostate, medication side effects, or serious pathology.
