Question
A baby experienced blood in their urine after two consecutive days of outdoor activities. What factors might cause this condition?
Answer
Dear parents, hello. The occurrence of hematuria in babies is usually referred to as post-exercise hematuria, which is primarily caused by kidney damage due to intense physical activity. There is no specific treatment for exercise-induced hematuria, and you may consider giving the child a blood coagulant and ensuring they get adequate rest until the hematuria subsides. In the future, when engaging in physical activities, it is recommended to start with small amounts of exercise and gradually increase to enhance the child’s overall and kidney tolerance to physical activity.
