Is Hardened Dried Urine Stain A Sign Of Bladder Stones Reforming?
Because of BPH, I had two large bladder stones removed a year ago because of a large prostrate. Now, I am getting a hardened dried urine stain on my underwear. Does this mean that bladder stones are reforminng? I am scheduled to see my urologist in January, 2914. Thanks,

Hi
Your stains on undergarments may not mean anything as significant as bladder calculi, but I certainly am of the opinion that if you have had bladder calculi associated with a bladder outlet obstruction, removal of stones will only be a temporary palliative, and a prostate surgery would give you the best relief. This can be easily done and I suggest you discuss with your urologist regarding this option when you next visit him.
