Suggest Treatment For Stomach Cramps After Undergoing Kidney Stone Removal
I was operated in my right kidney 2 years ago just to take out the stone but still have complete kidneys. Last year I started to feel cramps at the right side of my tummy. This happens even when i'm sleeping so I would wake up to do breathing exercise. I cannot do sit ups when I exercise. I know it has something to do with my operation but it's been 2 years already. How and when will this stop?

Hi and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, i can understand your anxiety.
As you've had stone treatment earlier,you could've got a recurrent stone.
So you need to see an Urologist and do the following tests :
1. urine routine and culture.
2. blood routine,creatinine,uric acid,calcium,RBS,LFT,and platelets.
3. Ultrasound -KUB / CT-KUB plain film.
Drink about 12 glasses fluids daily,to prevent a stone recurrence.
