[Edit this paragraph] The principle of avoiding urine and blood

All diseases of urinary system, diseases of adjacent organs of urinary tract, systemic or other organ diseases can cause hematuria. Traditional medicine in China believes that hematuria caused by any disease is caused by heat disturbing blood distribution. Heat storing kidney and bladder is the main pathological mechanism of hematuria, but it is also related to heart fire, small intestine fire, liver fire, yin deficiency and internal heat, which damages the vein, causing blood to be heated up and blood to flow out of urine.
