Dear Shamim

Therapy is always available in the event the stone does not progress around the ureter or sets out to cause much more serious symptoms. Surgical stone removal can be acquired over a prompt basis at the appropriate time. Generally speaking, we allow about a month for a stone to give if symptoms are tolerable.

Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) Is the most frequently employed means of eliminating kidney stones. Shock wave treatment works on the machine known as a lithotripter. It operates by directing ultrasonic or shock waves, created outside your system ("extracorporeal") through tissue and skin, until they hit the dense kidney stones. The impact causes stress on the stone. Repeated shock waves cause more stress, until the stone eventually crumbles into small pieces. These sand-like particles can be undergone the urinary tract inside the urine. We have is merely effective if the kidney is functioning well and there's no blockage for the passage of stone fragments.

Ureteroscopy (URS): This treatment involves the use of a really small, fiber-optic instrument termed as a ureteroscope, that allows access to stones in the ureter or kidney. The ureteroscope allows your urologist to directly visualize the stone by progressing the ureter through bladder. No incisions are important and general anesthesia is used to keep the sufferer comfortable throughout the procedure.

So please consult a urologist and discuss the mod of treatment best suits you.

With regard
