Question 1

i will undergo surgery for kidney stone stent removal tomorrow.  please let me know,  if it pains after the removal of this stent.

Accepted Answer

You may: You may have some pain afterwards from the inflammation but your doctor should give you pain medication for that.

Question 2

pain in the kidney area two weeks after stent removal for kidney stone. what should i do?

Accepted Answer

Ulrology consult: It is probably best for you to consult your urologist. Pain may be from spasm of the ureter, infection, or recurrent of stones (the ones not removed/already in the kidney). Your urologist would be best to address your concern.

Question 3

how do they remove a stent placed after kidney stone removal surgery?

Accepted Answer

Two ways: If the stent is left with a long "string" if intended to be short term, this can be grasped and pulled out easily. If there is no visible string, an office procedure to retrieve it with a flexible fiberoptic scope (cystoscopy) is a rapid and relatively painless method to remove the stent.

Question 4

i've had a fever iff and in since last night could this be caused by the stent inside me from kidney stone removal?

Accepted Answer

Possible infection: If there is no other obvious cause for fever, i would be concerned about an urinary tract infection related to the indwelling stent. Discuss the fever with your urologist.

Question 5

had kidney stone removed week ago. stent for 3 days. after removal extreme bladder spasms at night. should i be worried, can it be another stone?

Accepted Answer

Don't worry (yet): It is very common to have spasms after placement and removal of a ureteral stent. If the pain does not resolve after 2 weeks consider seeing your urologist and maybe even getting another ct scan to look for additional stones.

Question 6

can i masturbate after lazer kidney stone removal and stent placed in ureter.?

Accepted Answer

: Yes, you can.
Those 2 systems (urinary and genital tracts) only share the urethra.

Question 7

is alcohol consumption ok after kidney stone removal with a stent in place?

Accepted Answer

Yes.: Yes, but as always, in moderation.

Question 8

i had a stent put in from kidney stone removal, i got the stent out today and i'm experience stinging in the penis and bloody urine. is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Stent out today: It is normal to see blood and have burning, but if it persists this can be an infx....If you don't improve in 24 to 48 hours see your doc.

Question 9

ureteroscopic kidney stone removal 10 days ago. 39.8 temp and rapid heartbeat, plus urine dark red again. double j stent fitted. what could be causing?

Accepted Answer

Infection: You likely have an infection in your kidney and around the stent you should be seen today by your urologist, or if they are not available, at the emergency department.

Question 10

22days post ureteroscopic kidney stone removal&stent placement still passing stones not on ct ?  scans show nonobstructing  stones  how  can  this be?

Accepted Answer

good if stones come: After the manipulation with the ureteroscope and placement of the stent, whatever sediments that are sometimes not visible on ct scan or what ever the stone that got broken from the big nonobstructing one, they  come out&  it is good. Your urologist should be informed about the stones still coming out as based on that the need for rpt imaging, scopy, keeping the stent for more period will be decided.
