Multiple kidney stones
Below is the report of my latest sonography(today):
Left kidney shows changes of hydronephrosis with hydroureter and
calculus measuring 0.8 x 0.4 Cm .S. is seen at the left pelvi-ureteric
junction. 2 to 3 calculi are seen in the middle and inferior calyx of left
Aidney, the largest one measures 0.5 ems. in the inferior calyx.
Multiple calculi are seen in the right kidney, the largest one measures 0.4
CMS. in the middle calyx.
Prominent fluid filled bowel loops are seen in the lower abdomen.
My questions are as below:
1. Does that 0.8 x 0.4 will come out naturally or do i need to go through some surgery for it?
2. Stones in my middle and inferior calyx will come out? This complety normal people have stones at this location?
3. Do i need to go through surgery or operations or these will come out naturally if i drink lots of water?
4. What is hydrotherapy and how does it work?
5. Do i need to worry about anything?
Get also further work up done by urine examination routine and microscopic along with the a functional study like IVP or CT Urography to assess the kidney function affected by the stone disease.
Though medical treatment should be continued,surgical intervention may required if stone get impacted in urinary tract,causing significant infection,symptoms or affecting kidney function
