Is It Normal To Experience Pain After Lithotripsy Procedure?
Question: I had lithotripsy 4 days ago. I still have high levels of pain in my lower back. Points in which I have to take oxycodone to ease the pain cause I cannot move. No blood in urine or no pain in urinating. Is this normal?
Brief Answer:
It is fairly normal to have pain
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
It is normal to have pain but not severe pain after Lithotripsy. please see your Urologist and get an Ultrasound done to know what is happening.
Without that there is no way of telling what it is.
Take care and let me know if there are other queries on this issue.
