Patient's question:
My son hasn't been clear about what the reason is these days. He has been having difficulty urinating, taking a long time to pass urine. He himself said that it's extremely painful at the urethral opening when he urinates, and he also has lower back pain. Besides a little fever, there are no other symptoms. Should we give him some medicine now?What kind of assistance is needed: What should I do when my son can't urinate?
Doctor's answer:
Firstly, based on age and the recurring symptoms, it is considered that this may be caused by stones. Generally speaking, if stones reappear, when they are excreted into the urethra, they can cause blockage, leading to pain and difficulty urinating. This is especially true for bladder stones, where the position changes and it becomes difficult to urinate. Therefore, at this point, it is necessary to go to the hospital for an ultrasound to check for kidney stones.
