A member asked:
I have 8mm kidney stone. is it big enough to cause constant gross hematuria? can it pass naturally? what are my options to get it removed if hematuria persists and natural passing isnt possible?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Urologist: You should consult a urologist to ascertain if the stone is suitable for lithotripsy, endoscopic removal or would require open surgery. Once the stone is out, if the blood in urine persists, it would require and evaluation. Wish you good health!
