Patient's question:
During the day, urination is generally normal, but at night, there is frequent urination, and after going to the toilet, it's hard to urinate, with only a few drops coming out, which I can't control. How is the treatment for kidney stones with hydronephrosis?Doctor's answer:
If calculus intestinal obstruction leads to hydronephrosis, the first approach should be lithotripsy treatment. If the diameter of the stone is less than 0.6 cm, methods such as drug-induced stone passage can be used. If the stone diameter is between 0.6 and 2.0 cm, extracorporeal laser lithotripsy can be employed. Once the cause of the calculus intestinal obstruction is eliminated, the symptoms of hydronephrosis will naturally improve. Chinese medicine treatment can be decided upon, with medications prescribed based on symptoms for lithotripsy treatment. Surgery may be necessary if needed.
