Hematuria after exercise

After violent activities such as running or playing, hematuria is found, but the body has no obvious discomfort and no other symptoms. This is hematuria after exercise, which causes kidney damage after strenuous exercise. Occasionally, "hemoglobinuria" appears after exercise. At this time, the urine color is soy sauce color. No red blood cells or only a few red blood cells are seen during urine microscopy. Hemoglobinuria after exercise is also called "march hemoglobinuria", which was named after it appeared after soldiers marched. This disease contains free hemoglobin in urine due to intravascular hemolysis during exercise. Most people have a good prognosis and can heal on their own, generally without adversely affecting health.
