About Urinary Stone Treatment

Book your appointment now with our Best Urinary Stone Specialist In South Mumbai. A urinary stone, or kidney stone as it is also called, is a hard, rigid fragment that can form anywhere in the urinary tract. The kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra make up the urinary tract. Although stones can form in the ureters, bladder, or urethra, they most often form in the kidneys. Minerals and salts that are commonly found in urine form urinary stones. When these salts and minerals accumulate in the urine, they can crystallize. These crystals can combine to form stones. The most common age range for the formation of kidney stones is between 30 and 60 years of age.

Diagnosis

A medical history, physical examination, and imaging testing are the first steps in the diagnosis of a kidney stone. The precise size and shape of the kidney stones will be required by your urology specialists. This can be accomplished with a high resolution CT scan from the kidneys to the bladder or a KUB x-ray (kidney, ureter, and bladder x-ray), which will display the size and location of the stone. The surgeons frequently get a KUB x-ray to establish whether the stone may be treated with shock waves. Although the CT scan is frequently favoured for diagnosis, the KUB test may be used to monitor your stone both before and after therapy. Therefore get in touch with us because we have the Best Urinary Stone Specialist In South Mumbai.
