4 mm Kidney Stone Treatment

4 mm Kidney Stone Diagnosis

If your symptoms indicate kidney stones, the urologist may ask you to undergo a series of diagnostic tests to understand the condition thoroughly and accordingly advise the treatment plan.

  • Imaging tests: Tests like CT scans, ultrasound, and X-rays are necessary to find out the exact kidney stone mm size and location. 
  • Blood and urine tests: Blood tests are performed to determine the levels of calcium and uric acid in the blood, enabling the doctor to understand the overall kidney health. A 24-hour urine culture is also conducted to test the urine components that cause kidney stone formation.

Kidney stone analysis: Large kidney stones are accompanied mainly by small ones. If you try to collect your urine and allow it to pass through a strainer, you might find small kidney stones, which can be sent to the lab for analysis. 

4 mm Kidney Stone Surgery

As mentioned above, surgery is not always required for kidney stones of 4 mm or less. Such small kidney stones flush out naturally within a few weeks but the patient must observe the instructions given by the doctor without any negligence. However, if the symptoms persist even after a month of treatment, it is better to get in touch with the urologist to undergo screening tests again.
