summary

There are many ways to treat urinary calculi. Now medicine is developing continuously. Different treatment measures are taken according to the size of urinary calculi. Each has its own point, so you don't have to worry too much. Let's talk about how to treat urinary calculi.

How to treat urinary calculi

First, urinary calculi are formed by the spontaneous deposition of crystals in the kidney and bladder due to supersaturation, which mainly occurs in the bladder and kidney. For its formation, there are natural and genetic factors. In nature, the main reason is the difference of temperature. People with high temperature are prone to suffer from calculi. For patients with urinary calculi, it is recommended to drink more water to dilute the urine to prevent the stones from becoming larger. Diet can also be considered from the intake of vitamin C, such as eating more kiwi fruit, jujube, grapefruit and so on.

Second: according to the size of the stone, different treatment methods, non-surgical treatment: suitable for the stone is less than LCM, stone position has downward movement tendency, no significant impact on renal function, no urinary tract infection patients. A large amount of drinking water can not only increase the urine volume, wash the urinary tract and promote the downward movement of stones, but also dilute the urine and reduce crystal precipitation;

Third: surgical ureterolithotomy: it is suitable for patients with stones larger than LCM, rough surface and unable to discharge by themselves, or patients with ureteral stricture and infection, urinary obstruction caused by stones has affected renal function, or non-surgical treatment is invalid, and there is no extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy condition, surgical treatment should be considered. In principle, for bilateral renal calculi, the side with simple and safe operation should be taken first; for one side of renal calculi and the other side of ureteral calculi, the ureteral calculi should be taken first; for bilateral ureteral calculi, the side with severe hydronephrosis should be taken first.

matters needing attention

Patients with urinary stones should drink more water and urinate more, which is conducive to the elimination of stones. However, the specific method should be treated according to the size of stones. If the stones are relatively small, it is easier to eliminate them. If they are relatively large, they can be treated by extracorporeal lithotripsy, so we should check and treat them in time.
