4.5 mm Kidney Stone Treatment

Kidney stones (renal calculi) are hardened clumps of excessive salts and minerals in the urine. A 4mm kidney stone can easily pass through the urinary tract. Kidney stones carry a risk of growing bigger and more painful with time. Hence, the earliest treatment is crucial to minimize the chances of complications. If you are dealing with a 4.5 mm kidney stone and searching for an effective advanced treatment, Pristyn Care is the right choice. Our certified and experienced urologists are experts in kidney stone treatment. You can book your free consultation with our urologists and discuss the most appropriate treatment plan for yourself.

Kidney Stone Diagnosis & Treatment

Diagnosis

If you exhibit kidney stone symptoms, the urologist would advise you to get a few diagnostic tests done to understand your case thoroughly. 

  • Blood test: To check overall kidney health by examining calcium and uric acid level 
  • Urine test: A 24-hour urine culture lets the doctor check urinary components and if there is any indication of kidney or urinary infection
  • Imaging tests: CT scans, X-rays, and MRIs are necessary to determine the location and size of the kidney stone.

Surgery

As mentioned earlier, you may not need surgery for a 4.5 mm kidney stone. Surgical removal is advised in cases where the kidney stone is 5 mm or larger. A 4.5 mm kidney stone has a high probability of flushing out within a few weeks if you take all the necessary steps advised by the urologist. However, if the symptoms recur, or you experience residual pain even after passing the kidney stone, consult your urologist again and undergo imaging tests for complete clarity on the condition.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a 4.5 mm kidney stone flush out through urine?

Yes, it is possible to pass a 4.5 mm kidney stone with urine, as the ureter can stretch 4-5 mm to facilitate the passage of the stone. A high-fluid diet and oral medication help remove such a small kidney stone easily. 

Is it safe to leave a 4.5 mm kidney stone untreated?

It is not safe to leave a kidney stone untreated. There are chances that, with time, the stone will keep on growing and may lead to pain, nausea, and other discomforts. Thus, getting rid of kidney stones as soon as possible is better.

Can kidney stones cause pain in the lower back?

As a stone moves from the kidney to the bladder, it may lead to severe lower back pain that may even radiate to the groin. The pain may come and go in waves. Immediately medical attention is advised in such a scenario. 

How long does it take for a 4.5 mm kidney stone to be expelled by the body?

When a kidney stone of 4.5 mm starts moving in the urinary tract, it may take 30-45 days to expel naturally. However, the duration can be shorter if the patient takes a high-fluid diet and a course of prescribed oral medication.

How to prepare for kidney stone removal surgery?

Kidney stone surgery is advised to patients if a stone gets stuck in the ureter or is larger than 5 mm. The doctor provides a set of instructions before your kidney stone removal operation. Following are some of the standard pre-surgery instructions necessary for kidney stone removal treatment:

  • Discuss your current medical condition with the doctor in detail. Inform the doctor if you are taking any medication like blood thinners.
  • Quit smoking and drinking at least two weeks before kidney stone surgery
  • Eat a light and high-fiber diet and refrain from processed foods and refined carbohydrates.
  • Avoid drinking or eating anything after dinner the night before the surgery, as it may cause anaesthesia-related problems.
