A kidney is a bean-shaped organ located on either side of the abdomen and it belongs to the urinary system.
The kidney controls water balance in the body excreting extra water from the blood in the form of urine. It controls acid-base and electrolyte balance by maintaining chemicals in the body including sodium, potassium, and calcium.
Hematuria is a condition characterized by the presence of blood in the urine. There are two types of hematuria that include:
- Gross hematuria - Blood in the urine can be seen with naked eyes.
- Microscopic hematuria - Blood in the urine can be seen under a microscope, not with naked eyes.
