How to manage 6mm kidney stones without urologist?
Yes I have contacted urologist again but he won't help me with the kidney stones 6mm ,what can I do ?
General Physician
Answered on 23rd Oct '24
Suffering 6mm pads can be extremely painful and bring medical complaints like very strong back or side pain, hematuria, and wanting to pee often. The leading causes are dehydration and a diet that is excessive in salt. To facilitate the movement of the stones, you should consume plenty of water, limit your intake of salty foods, and take the medications a nephrologist may recommend. If the pain gets intense, you have to go to the hospital ASAP.

I am a kidney patient GFR61 and creatinine 1.08 level CKD stage 2 now Can my kidney function improve and can my kidneys get cured completely and recover without any side effects and without any further damage by Homeopathic medicines and treatment faster
Female | 70
In CKD stage 2, the kidney function is low and can be controlled. Homeopathy may relieve symptoms such as fatigue, edema, and high blood pressure. Still, full cure and recovery without side effects are not a warranty. To keep your kidneys safe, drink water, eat a healthy diet, and take your doctor's advice.

Sir I am facing swelling in kidney area what could be the reason for it?
Female | 16
The question of whether your kidneys are swollen should be considered. Symptoms can vary, including a sensation of stomach bloating or difficulty urinating. It is reasonable to suspect a kidney infection might be the cause. Therefore, drink plenty of water and consult a nephrologist. The doctor may prescribe medications or other treatments.

I am having hematuria since last night. Iam diagnosed with kidney stone last year.is hematuria due to kidney stone. But I'm not experiencing any pain
Female | 20
Hematuria, or blood in the urine, can be concerning. One likely reason is a kidney issue. Even without symptoms, it’s important to find the cause. The three main reasons are infection, a moving stone, or injury. Diagnosis is usually made through tests by a healthcare provider. Treatment varies and can include increased water intake and medications. Talking to a nephrologist is best to understand what’s happening in the body.

My father is suffering from CKD stage V now my USG report is showing ADPKD MY question is i recently joined gym for my body transformation fat to fit for that goal i have to eat 2 grams per body weight of protein is it good for my kidney also i want to add creatine supplement can i add that supplement
Male | 24
The function of the kidneys worsens when you eat large amounts of protein, and the kidney problems become more severe. The extremely high rates of creatine supplements can make the kidneys unable to function properly. Before you start any regimen, consult with your doctor to figure out the best approach that is right for your body.

My wife is 39 years old suffering from CKD.Her cretanine pevel is 6.4
Female | 39
Your wife is likely to be getting symptoms such as fatigue, swelling, and trouble breathing if the creatinine level is 6.4. This could be from Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), which is when the kidneys get damaged. To help manage this, she needs to follow a low-salt diet, take the prescribed medications, and possibly undergo dialysis. It's vital to ensure that her condition is stable by doing regular check-ups.

Toilet baar baar aata hai jalan hota hai aur 1 hours me 10 to 15 times urine jaana padta hai left kidney ke 2-3mm stones hai please help me
Female | 24
You could have felt the kidney stones along with a burning/ painful situation during pee. For the larger part, kidneys produce such types of stones that are made up of water, calcium oxalate, and uric acid. Water is the best and first food to flush out these stones, so you should drink a lot of it. If the pain won't go away, visit a nephrologist and go through the advised treatments, if any.

My wife is on dialysis since dec 23,She is regular on dialysis machne thrice a week. She is not well all the time but she has to rush in emergency for treatment like vomits episodes of 20-30 any day;I want to seek that she is hardly in normal health. Will it possible to get fully fit, can she be away from high b. P. Will she be transplanted kidney.
Female | 56
The purpose of dialysis is to substitute the function of the kidneys when they fail to perform their job properly. Nausea and vomiting could be due to her current state of health. To boost her health, besides the medical team's directives, taking medications regularly, and eating a balanced diet are also necessary. A kidney transplant might be a possible alternative in the future, but it is the best option for her doctor to make the decision.

hi , what treatment to relieve my dad’s symptom who severe chronic kidney who have symptom blister itch and burst ?
Male | 56
Your dad has tough skin issues; those itchy blisters bursting constantly. It happens when kidneys don't work right, common in severe chronic kidney disease. Poorly functioning kidneys cause such symptoms. To ease the itch and prevent new blisters, keeping skin clean and moisturized is key. Use gentle, fragrance-free soaps, and apply soothing creams. If symptoms persist or worsen, see a nephrologist for evaluation and treatment options.

Female | 22
The symptoms you pointed out - low energy, lower back pain, stomach ache, joint pain - can be observed even after a kidney infection. It could be the body recovering, thus, the fatigue and the aches. Sometimes, the effects that are left over can last for quite a long time. If these symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a nephrologist for further advice.

I had kidney stones. Some are removed with ursl, but there are still some. I had wart or something else on my leg, so the doctor recommended to use salicylic acid bp 40%. I didn't even realize that I should disclose the fact of having issues with kidney thinking what could be the relationship between dermatology and urology. But I am pretty sure I have committed a huge mistake. The acid has probably entered to my kidney and caused something. It is such a painful ? in my back around kidney. I am far away from hospital (remote). Need first aid to get rid of the pain ? (probably some organic base will neutralize it)
Male | 24
Your back pain might be caused by acid affecting your kidney area, which can irritate this sensitive organ. Drinking plenty of water can help reduce the acid, but it's important to see a nephrologist.

Hi I have a kidney cyst and it's been 8 months since I attended to it is this really not good or what should I do I'm scared
Female | 33
Discovering kidney cysts can be frightening, but stay calm—they're usually harmless and symptom-free. However, if you experience back pain, blood in your urine, or high blood pressure, see a nephrologist promptly. They will likely order tests to assess the situation properly. Delaying care for eight months is inadvisable; prompt evaluation ensures your well-being. Though usually benign, ignoring potential issues can lead to complications. With timely check-ups and appropriate treatment, kidney cysts are manageable.

Hi wondering is protein trace leukocytes and high ph on urine dip test a sign of kidney infection? Also has flank pain and nausea
Female | 17
When your urine test finds protein, white blood cells, and high pH with flank pain or nausea, it may mean a kidney infection. Bacteria entering the bladder usually causes these infections. Drink lots of water. Take antibiotics your doctor prescribes. See a nephrologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

Urine infection; pus cells -8-10, epithelial cells 10-12
Female | 35
Finding pus and epithelial cells in urine could indicate an infection. Symptoms of this condition may include a burning sensation when urinating, having a frequent need to urinate but passing only small amounts of urine, cloudy or strong-smelling urine. This bacterium could have been introduced into the urinary tract by drinking a lot of water or taking antibiotics as prescribed by your nephrologist.

Hello, please is Creatine 5g daily for people with just a little bit of kidney dysfunction?
Male | 21
If you have kidney trouble, be careful about taking 5g of creatine per day. These conditions could get worse if you do. Some signs that your kidneys may not be working properly are tiredness, swelling (particularly around the ankles), and difficulty falling asleep at night. Before starting any new supplements, it is important to talk with a nephrologist first.

I am 20 years old female. I have high creatinine levels in my blood/urine. Leakage of protein I am on blood pressure tablets Ramipril 2.5mg I have this condition for 3 years and have not seen hardly any changes. I want to see someone who is an expertise in this field of kidneys
Female | 20
High creatinine levels and protein leaking into your urine are signs of kidney disease. If you combine these symptoms with the medication you have been prescribed for hypertension it could mean that what you are suffering from is called ‘proteinuria’ which affects only the kidneys. Make sure to see a nephrologist who can examine them further. They will be able to advise on how best this should be treated according to your condition.

Pain in urine and also in kidney and some thick white paste in urine
Female | 22
You may have pain when peeing, discomfort near your kidneys, and thick white discharge in your urine. These are signs of a urinary tract infection (UTI) or a kidney infection caused by bacteria entering the urinary tract. Drinking plenty of water, taking antibiotics prescribed by a doctor, and resting can help improve your condition. However, it is essential to visit a nephrologist for a proper diagnosis and the right treatment.

I am 48 years old. There is albumin (protein)+1 present in my kidneys. I am experiencing a fever as well as pain in my back. I have hypertension and diabetes as well.
Female | 48
According to what you have said, it may be a sign that there is an infection in one or both of the kidneys or even some sort of damage if the protein in your urine is accompanied by other symptoms like fever, backache, high blood pressure, and diabetes. Having protein present within urine isn’t normal at all, especially when taken together with these other signs. So you must see a nephrologist as soon as possible to have this checked out.
