A urine culture is done to determine the specific bacteria that is responsible for the urinary tract infection. If you have had a urine culture done, then the bacteria was identified and is not unknown.
Can you actually see the blood in your urine or was it found on a urine test?
There are two types of blood in urine. Blood that you can see is called gross hematuria. Urinary blood that's visible only under a microscope is known as microscopic hematuria and is found when your doctor tests your urine.
A urinary tract infection and a kidney infection are two causes of bacteria and blood in the urine.
