About কিডনিতে পাথর

Kidney stones are hard deposits that form in the urine. A stone moving down from the kidney typically causes sudden, severe pain in the side or back that spreads towards the groin, often with nausea and sometimes blood in the urine. Small stones often pass on their own with fluids and pain relief; larger ones may need a procedure. A urologist treats them.

What happens at the first visit?

Expect a urine test, kidney function blood tests and an ultrasound, and often a CT scan to see the size and position of the stone. If stones keep coming back, the doctor may test the stone itself or a 24-hour urine sample to find out why. Bring earlier scans.

This is general information, not a diagnosis. Your own doctor will advise on your case.
