Suggest Treatment For 9mm Kidney Stone Causing Dysuria And Blood In Urine

Hi, I have kidneys tone 9mm stuck in ureter. Dr did operation he put stent in ureter & pushed the kidney stone back into kidney. And sent me home by booking another operation in 4 weeks time. In that operation he will break the stone & will remove stent as well. But question is I have to suffer one month with this pain. Whenever I am going to toilet. I have to suffer pain and blood comming in urain. Plus medication. Is Dr done right or wrong?

Hi
Your doctor has placed a stent in your ureter instead of removing the stone during the first operation as the ureter might have been tight and he was unable to push the camera up enough to see the stone to break it.
Unfortunately 2 out of three patients who have stent in ureter have symptoms of passing blood in urine, frequent visit to toilet, pain in bladder area and kidney area.
Please drink adequate fluids and take pain killers as ibuprofen as required. Also you could take a tablet called tamsulosin once daily. if symptoms still are severe then please contact the doctor who did the surgery and he will be able to do the second operation sooner.
