Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling abdominal pain, and it has extended to my entire lower back. After undergoing relevant tests at the hospital, I was surprisingly diagnosed with urinary tract stones. How should urinary tract stones be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description of the situation: Treating urinary stones involves two aspects. One is to treat the primary cause, such as metabolic disorders, infections, or existing anatomical issues. The other is to address the complications of the stones, such as obstruction and infection. The simplest and most effective approach is to drink a large amount of water, which can dilute urine and slow down the growth of stones as well as prevent recurrence. When there is an infection, drinking a lot of water can also promote drainage. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
