Patient's question:
How is urinary tract stone treated, and what dietary precautions should be taken? When I went to the hospital for examination, the doctor performing the black and white ultrasound said they couldn't find anything. They then asked me to rest at home. Does anyone know what to do in this situation?Doctor's answer:
Hello;The true cause of urinary system stones is currently not yet clear. They are primarily more common among people living in southern regions and may be related to factors such as diet, water intake, lifestyle, and genetics.
Recommendation:
If the above condition has not been fully diagnosed, it is advisable to visit a hospital with better facilities for an ultrasound or 3D color ultrasound first. After confirming the size of the stone, its location, and whether there is kidney hydronephrosis, a decision can be made on whether further treatment is needed.
Additionally, it is recommended to eat less greasy food, avoid smoking and alcohol, drink more water, and reduce the intake of foods such as persimmons, tofu made with gypsum, and spinach.
