Does calculi cause serious hydronephrosis

summary

Hydronephrosis is the obstruction of urine excretion from the kidney. When it is excreted from the renal pelvis, it is not smoothly discharged from the body, but retained in the kidney, causing hydronephrosis. At this time, due to the obstruction of urine in the body, the pressure in the kidney will increase, and the renal pelvis and calyces will expand, resulting in a series of kidney damage. The incidence of hydronephrosis caused by kidney stones is relatively slow. It can be a long time without obvious symptoms. The symptoms of hydronephrosis rarely appear. When the kidney is completely obstructed, that is, when the kidney stones completely block the ureter, there is serious pain in the kidney due to stone incarceration. At this time, it is found that the kidney stones have caused hydronephrosis when we go to the hospital for examination. Is calculi causing hydronephrosis serious? Let's talk about it.

Does calculi cause serious hydronephrosis

First: kidney stones cause hydronephrosis. Sometimes the hydronephrosis occurs intermittently. When the hydronephrosis occurs, the stomach will have severe pain, nausea and vomiting of the digestive system will occur, and the urine volume will also be reduced. After a few hours, the pain will be relieved, and then a large amount of urine will be discharged. This is caused by the stones completely blocking the urinary tract. When the stones deviate from the position, it will be stopped It's micturition again.

Second: kidney stones can cause hydronephrosis. At the same time, hydronephrosis can also cause kidney stones, kidney and ureteral stones. Therefore, we must pay close attention to the treatment when we find hydronephrosis. If long-term obstruction leads to hydronephrosis, it may eventually lead to gradual necrosis of the kidney, and finally develop into renal failure.

Third: kidney stones caused by hydronephrosis, can go to the hospital to use Chinese medicine to treat stones, while removing the water, usually in the diet to avoid eating oxalic food, such as spinach. Calcium high food, such as milk, chocolate, also try to eat less or do not eat, at the same time control the sodium intake.

matters needing attention

Hydronephrosis caused by kidney stones must be treated quickly to remove the obstruction phenomenon of hydronephrosis. Otherwise, if the obstruction is more and more serious, the hydronephrosis will be more and more, which is extremely unfavorable for the function of the kidney. The more serious the development, the worse the treatment.
