Blood clots in urine

For the past few days I have been urinating little blood clots intermintently. I do not have any pain. I am 70 years old and cannot afford going to a doctor.

Sounds like you really need to go see a doctor. Go to a free clinic, you can get medical care without money.

Sweetie, Terrie is right. If you call your city hall, or the nearest hospital and ask them where you can see a doctor without paying, they will give you an address and a phone number.
In the mean time, drink water. If it's something like a kidney stone, that will help.

Hi, Martin.

Listen to Gramma & Terrie.

The most likely cause (in the absence of pain) is bladder or prostate cancer.

Let us know what you learn.
