Patient's question:
Lower left abdominal, no lower back pain, the doctor said it was a urinary tract stone. How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to use an extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) machine for stone removal treatment. This device is most suitable for: (1) Various kidney stones and ureteral stones smaller than 1.2 cm, for which extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy should be the first choice for stone removal. This is because it causes no kidney damage, ensures thorough stone removal, is safe and painless, and avoids the secondary damage of shock wave fragmentation. If the stone diameter is greater than 1.2 cm, extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy should first be used to fragment the larger stone, followed by ESWL for thorough stone removal, achieving complementary advantages. (2) It is particularly suitable for acute ureteral stones and the resulting hydronephrosis, renal pelvis dilation, ureteral hydronephrosis, ureteral dilation, and renal colic. It can quickly expel ureteral stones, immediately relieve pain, and rapidly alleviate the aforementioned symptoms, making it the preferred treatment for ureteral stones.
