I'm 22 year old female... I have 5.6mm kidney stone.. how can this remove without surgery

Female | 22

Managing a 5.6mm kidney stone without surgery is possible in some cases. Symptoms may include pain in the back or side, difficulty urinating, or blood in urine. To help pass the stone, increase fluid intake, particularly water, and consider dietary adjustments, like limiting salt and animal protein. Over-the-counter pain relievers can provide relief. Sometimes, medications called alpha blockers may aid stone passage. However, it’s vital to connect with a nephrologist for tailored advice and to monitor your situation.

Male | 21

Your symptoms of back pain, urine burning, and general weakness are likely due to the kidney stone. I suggest you to keep on taking Calcury tablets as the BAMS doctor prescribed you. Stay well-hydrated and eat a balanced diet. If these symptoms last or worsen, it's vital to get medical help.

Hi doctor my name is Nishan mere choti bahan ki age 15 year h osko pathri ki problem h hamne bohot jagah se dwa khilaye h but jada farak ni pda I need help

Female | 15

Stone formation in the kidney can cause pain in the back, groin, or lower abdomen, nausea, and blood in the urine. Insufficient drinking water and particular diet habits can bring about the development of stones. Drinking enough water, not eating foods that are high in oxalates such as spinach, nuts, and chocolate, and getting professional advice are among the key points for further treatment.

I'm 22 years old female "I got a urine test done and the results showed amber-colored urine with positive turbidity, RBC, WBC, pus, mucus, hemoglobin, ketones, and squamous epithelial cells. I also got a contrast CT KUB done which came out normal, and a urine culture which was also normal. Today, I collected my morning urine in a container and when I touched it with my finger, I felt a white creamy substance. Now, my morning urine is milky and throughout the day, I see tiny bubbles in my urine that disappear quickly. If I drink water, I urinate every 10 minutes, three times, and each time I see tiny bubbles in my urine that form and disappear quickly. I don't have sugar and my urine culture is normal. What's the problem?"

Female | 22

It looks as though your signs may have something to do with some different reasons, like dehydration or what you are eating. Bubbles can indicate space in the urine or low protein levels that usually go with fluids. If it's not the color, but it's the clarity, then the urine looks suspicious. Dark urine, cloudiness, and substances like milk suggest problems with the urinary system. Yay to the clear points from the CT scan and urine culture, but just to be on the safe side, I would advise a follow-up visit to a urologist.

My creatinine is 1.0 still from 2 months

Male | 34

A creatinine level of 1.0 mg/dL is generally considered within a normal range for most adults. It's important to note that several factors can influence these numbers, including hydration, diet, and muscle mass. Symptoms to watch for include fatigue, swelling, or changes in urination. Maintaining a balanced diet, staying hydrated, and monitoring your blood pressure can support kidney health. However, if you experience any unusual symptoms or have concerns, it’s wise to consult a nephrologist. Regular check-ups will help you stay informed and ensure your kidneys are functioning well.

Hi, I have end-stage kidney failure and I've been doing hemodialysis for 4 years now, and I've been worrying about my fistula or how long it is going to last before I get a tube stuck in my neck as an alternative. Today, the bulge on my arm which I assume is the fistula got moved or at least something got moved slightly causing discomfort and a change of shape of the bulge. Is that a cause for concern? It doesn't have redness or pain in the exact place, but I'm worried sick. Can this be fixed by a surgery? Other questions that have been bothering me. How about if it got ruptured? It started to bulge and reddened. Can it still be fixed? Also, let's say my left arm fistula died and I had to use my right arm. Can I still use my left arm for fistula once it's healed in the future? Thank you for your answers in advance, I'm a teenager who got dealt with a bad hand right from the get-go and I wish to know more about my current situation.

Male | 18

It’s understandable to be concerned about changes in your fistula. If you notice any discomfort, change in shape, or other symptoms like redness, it's important to check it. A vascular surgeon can assess your fistula and determine if any intervention is needed. Even if your current fistula fails, it's possible to create a new one in the same arm after healing. This should be evaluated by your doctor. Please consult your nephrologist or a vascular surgeon for a detailed examination and advice.

Male | 32

You've gotten to the fifth stage of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Your kidneys barely work at this advanced stage. Exhaustion, swelling, and chills frequently occur. Hypertension, diabetes, or other illnesses can lead to this condition. Stem cell treatment isn't typically used for CKD. Discussing treatment choices with your nephrologist is highly recommended for Stage 5 CKD management.

Male | 66

When you have ESRD, your kidneys do not work well. Although dialysis is working for you, high blood pressure may cause more difficulties. Be on the lookout for signs like being tired, swollen body parts and/or having trouble breathing. Do not stop taking your hypertension drugs; also follow a diet that is good for the kidneys plus keep being active.

Female | 23

Protein presence in urine, especially when other tests are normal, can occur due to various reasons, such as mild kidney stress, dehydration, or even specific dietary factors. The presence of bubbles often suggests gas or air in urine, which can also relate to diet or concentration of urine. While your reports are generally normal, it’s essential to consult a nephrologist to explore these findings further, particularly if you notice changes in symptoms. They can provide a comprehensive assessment and guidance tailored to your situation.

I have 5.5mm kidney stone lower pole left kidney asymptomatic... What to do

Male | 29

A small stone in your left kidney, which isn't causing any symptoms, seems manageable. These tiny stones form when minerals stick together. Often, they'll pass on their own without causing any trouble. Keep drinking water regularly, cut back on salty snacks, and consult your nephrologist for advice.

Dr, I was diagnosed with IGA nephropathy 32 years ago. I am 64 years of age and my creatinine is 2.31 and has been hovering around that number. I have lost 124 lbs over the past year with the assistance of Zepbound. My kidneys have not improved and appear to be getting slightly worse. I run 3 miles a day and eat around 1200 calories a day never exceeding my sodium or potassium requirements. I do not have protein or blood in my urine. Please help. What is causing my creatinine to continue to rise? I am currently In Stage 4 kidney disease. Should I get an updated biopsy since my only biopsy was done in 1992. What can I do? Could the Zepbound be causing my kidneys to worsen? I drink 100 ounces of water daily.

Female | 64

It is concerning that your creatinine levels are rising despite your efforts. IGA nephropathy can progress slowly over time, and factors like age, diet, and medications may influence kidney function. Zepbound's impact on your kidneys should be evaluated by a specialist. I strongly advise you to consult a nephrologist for a thorough assessment and consider getting an updated biopsy to understand the current state of your kidney disease.

Hi kidney related with patient

Male | 23

Kidney issues can happen due to various reasons like high blood pressure, diabetes, or even certain medications. It's essential to get a proper evaluation to understand what's going on. In fact, seeing an urologist for some tests like blood work and maybe a kidney ultrasound can give us a clearer picture. Meanwhile, make sure to stay hydrated, watch your salt intake, and follow any dietary recommendations.

My mother is a chronic kidney disease patient, with creatinine levels fluctuating between 3 and 5.5. Her feet swell if she consumes raw salt directly, but the swelling only occurs in one foot at a time. Her hemoglobin levels are stable. Occasionally, she experiences electrolyte imbalances, which happen about once a year. She also faces recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs). Her blood pressure is 130/85, but during winter, it can rise to 190/100, although this happens for a maximum of 1-2 days.

Female | 55

Your mother's creatinine levels indicate that her kidney operation needs to be carefully managed. If feet are swollen, especially after salt intake, say 'fluid retention', which can be seen in kidney disease, is the main problem. Hemoglobin, which varies, is a good sign, but her history of urinary infections and occasional electrolyte issues necessitates deeper examination. The temporary increases in blood pressure might be caused by stress or other environmental factors. It is essential to watch her diet, reduce salt intake, and hydrate properly. I suggest scheduling regular check-ups with a nephrologist to explain her condition and regulate medication with a healthcare professional who can provide customized care
