Kidney Stones Removal in Shivatkar

Kidney stones form as a result of excess salts and minerals in the kidneys. This leads to an increased concentration of toxic waste in the urine. When this toxic waste exceeds fluid concentration, it leads to the formation of kidney stones. Kidney stones are not always painful and some patients can barely feel any pain or discomfort.

If the stones travel to the ureter, patients can suffer immense sudden pain in the lower back or even cause serious complications. Kidney stones can vary in size, they can be as small as a granule of sand to the size of a golf ball.

Kidney Stones Treatment in Shivatkar

Diagnosis for Kidney Stones

You should reach out to a specialist doctor as soon as you notice the symptoms of kidney stones.

The specialist doctor will discuss your medical history to get a better understanding of your condition. They may perform a physical examination and ask you to undergo some imaging tests for the proper diagnosis of the size and the location of the kidney stones.

In addition to imaging tests, your doctor may also conduct some blood and urine tests to get a detailed insight into the condition of your kidney stones.

And, before providing the treatment, your doctor will ask you a few questions about your diet and check for where you feel the bouts of pain the most.

4 Methods for Kidney Stones Removal

After the results of the diagnosis, the doctor will initiate and advise the best-suited kidney stones treatment according to the condition.

  • ESWL(Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy)– It uses shock waves to break the kidney stone into small pieces that can move through the urinary tract & pass from the body.
  • Lithotripsy(Ureteroscopy)– In this, the ureteroscope is passed through the urethra and into the ureter to remove a stone using laser energy.
  • RIRS(Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery)– It is a procedure for doing surgery within the kidney using a flexible ureteroscope to remove the upper ureter and small kidney stones.
  • PCNL(Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy)– It is a minimally invasive procedure in which large kidney stones are removed through a small incision in the skin.
