Fever and chills if there is an infection diagnosis of kidney stones
symptoms of kidney stones several different tests can detect the presence of kidney stones. Physical examination may reveal colicky pain (in the groin) and pain in the lower back around the kidneys. Analysis of the urine can indicate whether or not there is blood in the urine, and if there is a subsequent infection. Blood tests can be performed to identify complications that may accompany kidney stones and to check the validity of the diagnosis.

CT scan of the abdomen is the most thorough way to test kidney stones. CT scans will ensure the state of the ureter, bladder, and kidney, whether there are stones or not, the size of the right kidney stones, and location, if there is a blockage or not, and the state of other nearby organs such as the appendix, aorta, and pancreas. Pregnant women are better performing ultrasound tests than CT scans in order to avoid unnecessary radiation.


Once a patient is diagnosed with kidney stones, the examination with x-rays will be used to track the movement of the stone through the excretory system.


Treating kidney stonestreat kidney stonesTreating kidney stones should be focused on symptom management, issued stones can be very painful. If someone has a history of kidney stones, home treatment may be
suitable, However, someone who has never had a previous kidney stone should receive medical attention.
 

If the treatment is performed in a hospital, a nurse will provide anti-inflammatory. Narcotics are often used as a drug to help reduce the pain when removing kidney stones. Anti-vomiting may be granted also for patients suffering from nausea and vomiting.

In some cases, a urologist can perform shock wave therapy called lithotripsy - treatment that would break up kidney stones into smaller pieces and allow it to come out. A study has shown that shock wave therapy for kidney stones associated with an increased risk of diabetes.


Patients with large rocks are located in an area that does not allow for lithotripsy may receive surgical procedures such as percutaneous nephrolithotomy (removal of stones through an incision in the back) or Ureteroscopic stone removal (removal of a stone through a thin tube into the urethra.


Preventing kidney stonesprevent kidney stones healthy individuals, prevent kidney stones can be done by drinking water in adequate portions. Water can erode minerals in the kidneys so it does not form stones. When a person's urine light-colored/white, not yellow, the likelihood of stone formation is reduced. Doctors can also prescribe medications to prevent some types of stone for individuals who are at high risk.


A study found that a glass of orange juice every day may help prevent the recurrence of kidney stones. A person at high risk should also reduce the intake of caffeine.
