Accepted Answer

Question 2

i have concretion (sand like particles) not kidney stone, can it cause pain in the back, side, hip, urinary blader and penis area? how long it heals up

Accepted Answer

Yes: "stones" in the kidney are not usually the large "staghorn" type people think of. You usually have to use a strainer or tea bag to filter your urine in order to capture the "stones." therefore, you certainly may have kidney stones. Until they pass, the pain may be there. There are other things which may cause pain in addition to stones, so make sure that is what you have.

Question 3

what kind of surgery do they do on a 7mm kidney stone?

Accepted Answer

Lithotripsy....: Nowsdays, laser lithotripsy through a fine long flexible telescope can do a lot of wonder of stone removal; it's safe and patient tolerates well, but at times, a stent for 5-10 days may be required to ease ureteral healing after lithotripsy. For detail, ask urologist.

Besides, practicing stone prevention is essential part of care as advised by your urologist.

Best wish...
