Is it serious to have kidney stones and hydronephrosis?

Patient's question:

Recently, my appetite hasn't been good, and I've been a bit swollen all over. I feel weak all the time. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it was kidney disease. Is it serious to have kidney stones and hydronephrosis?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, for people with kidney stones accompanied by hydronephrosis. The recurrence of hydronephrosis is often caused by the recurrence of kidney stones leading to obstruction. The stones can be removed through surgery. Generally, the symptoms of hydronephrosis can gradually improve. Additionally, such patients should drink more water, be more active, follow a light diet, and rest on time in the future. Otherwise, it is also easy to cause kidney stones again. This disease does not require kidney removal treatment.
