Patient: A 27 YEARS OLD ,MALE PATIENT COMPLAINS OF PAIN IN RIGHT INGUINAL REGION AND IN FLANK REGION.....NO PROBLEM IN MICTURATION...ONLY HEAVYNESS IN SCROTAL SAC...USG SHOWS 5MM. RENAL STONE IN RIGHT CALYX AND SAME SIZE IN LOWER URETER...ADVISE TRT PLAN PLZ...THANKS Doctor: HiYour symptoms are consistent with stone in lower ureter. 5 mm stone in lower ureter can be allowed to pass spontaneously. Some 60-70% of patients pass the stone by themselves. Others might need surgery to remove it.In the first instance I would like you get a CT scan of your kidneys and bladder to confirm the diagnosis as well as blood test for kidney function. Taking urimax might help you pass the stone quicker and with less pain but please visit your doctor for prescription.
