Kidney Stone Symptoms – What to Watch Out For

Kidney Stone Symptoms – What to Watch Out For

Dr. Arun Rathi, Consultant Urologist & Andrologist, CARE Hospitals, Banjara Hills, Hyderabad, explains that symptoms of kidney stones vary based on their location. Stones in the kidney can cause pain in the lower back (loin), while stones in the ureter may lead to radiating pain toward the front, even to the tip of the penis or urethra. Common symptoms include severe pain, nausea, vomiting, burning urination, painful or intermittent urination, blood in urine, and fever with chills. In advanced cases, kidney failure can occur, presenting as leg swelling (pedal oedema), breathlessness, and high fever with rigors. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial.#KidneyStones #UrologyCare #DrArunRathi #CAREHospitals #CAREHospitalsBanjaraHills #KidneyHealth #StoneSymptoms #PainfulUrination #BloodInUrine #StayHydrated #SummerHealth #Urologist #Andrologist #HealthyKidneys #KidneyAwareness
