A member asked:
Could kidney stones create lower abdominal distention?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: Sometimes kidney stones can cause your digestion to temporarily stop (a condition often referred to as "secondary" or "adynamic ileus." this can be seen sometimes as abdominal distension. However, there are multiple other more classic symptoms associated with kidney stones such as colicky type flank pain and there are also other more common causes of abdominal distension that may need evaluation.
