Patient's question:
Abdominal pain,,, the test results said it was a ureteral stone... Is this serious? Will it affect future fertility? I'm so worriedDoctor's answer:
Kidney stones are a very common disease, where "stones" form in the kidneys, ureters, or bladder. They not only cause pain and hematuria but can also lead to urinary tract infections. If the "stones" block the urinary tract for a long time, it can cause hydronephrosis and even damage kidney function. Symptoms include pain, hematuria, painful urination, and difficulty urinating.Advice:
Kidney stones are also known as urinary tract stones, urolithiasis, or urinary system stones. They refer to the general term for all types of stones in various parts of the urinary system. They are a common condition in the urinary system and are classified based on the location of the stones, including kidney stones, ureteral stones, bladder stones, and urethral stones.
