Kidney Stones

Kidney stones are hard mineral deposits that form in the urinary tract and can cause severe pain, blockage, or infection if not treated appropriately.

At Urocare Urology Superspeciality Clinic, Dr. Srikanth provides focused care for Kidney Stones with a patient-specific plan. The aim is to relieve symptoms, prevent complications, and choose the safest effective treatment for lasting improvement.

Key Concerns in Kidney Stones

  • Typical symptoms include sudden flank pain, burning urination, blood in urine, nausea, or repeated urinary infections.
  • Urinary symptoms can worsen gradually or appear suddenly with pain, blockage, or infection.
  • Repeated urinary complaints should be investigated instead of being managed only with temporary relief.
  • Early care helps protect bladder and kidney function and reduces avoidable complications.
  • A tailored treatment plan depends on the exact cause, age, general health, and severity of symptoms.

Treatment planning is guided by symptoms, examination findings, medical history, age, associated conditions, and the need to preserve long-term urinary and overall health.

Evaluation and Treatment for Kidney Stones

  • Diagnosis usually involves urine tests, ultrasound, X-ray, or CT scan to confirm the stone size, site, and any associated obstruction.
  • Treatment may include hydration advice, pain control, medicines to help stone passage, laser treatment, RIRS, or other stone-removal procedures depending on size and location.
  • Treatment planning is based on symptoms, examination findings, and test results rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
  • Minimally invasive options are preferred whenever they are appropriate and safe.
  • Follow-up is structured to reduce recurrence and maintain long-term urinary health.
