How to treat right kidney stones with hydronephrosis

Patient's question:

Because of training reasons, I have been working overtime, attending banquets with clients, and often smoking and drinking beer. Due to constant fatigue, my health has not been good. What should I do if I have recurrent right kidney stones accompanied by right kidney hydronephrosis again?

Doctor's answer:

The treatment of kidney stones depends on the size of the patient's stones and the decision to treat the stones. If there is a stone in the right kidney that cannot be smoothly excreted from the body, it may lead to the recurrence of hydronephrosis and nephritis. Chinese herbal medicine for stone removal can be used in conjunction with oral stone removal drugs. If the stones are relatively large, it is necessary to perform lithotripsy, such as extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL), or the dual-frequency soft lens lithotripsy can be adopted. At the same time, in terms of diet, it is necessary to eat more light and easily digestible foods, pay attention to doing more aerobic exercise for conditioning. If hydronephrosis and nephritis have already occurred, appropriate anti-inflammatory drugs should be used.
