Calculi In Upper, Mid Pole Of Right Kidney, Upper Right Ureter Calculus, Mild Proximal Hydroureteronephrosis. Treatment?
Hi Dr, Greetings. I am Thambi Durai, 59 Male from Tirunelveli. I am having a calculi measuring 3 to 4 mms present in upper and mid pole of right kidney . Calculus measuring 4 mms present in upper pole of left kidney. Calculus measuring 6 mms present in right upper ureter causing obstruction and mild proximal hydroureteroneohrosis. Please give me the solution for that.
hi thambi, you have stones in both kidneys and one lodged in your right upper ureter. luckily the stones are 6 mm or smaller. so medical treatment is preferrable. take lots of fluids (unless you have any heart/kidney or liver problems). take citrus juice (lemon/mausambi/orange). your family physician or a urologist may prescribe you medicines to decrease pain/avoid infection/ help expell the stones. flush therapy can aslo be given if fluid intake is less. get a repeat sonography done after 7-10 days. if you have severe pain/vomiting/fever or if the ureteric stone refuses to move even after 10-15 days of flushing, endoscopic surgery may be needed. good luck.
