Advanced Ureteric Stone Treatment in Warangal & Hanamkonda
If you are experiencing persistent flank pain, burning urination, or blood in urine, timely consultation with a qualified urologist is important.
What Is a Ureteric Stone?
A ureteric stone is a hard mineral deposit that forms in the kidney and travels into the ureter, the tube connecting the kidney to the bladder. When the stone becomes lodged in the ureter, it blocks urine flow and causes intense pain.
Common symptoms include:
Severe pain in the lower back or abdomen
Frequent urge to urinate
Pain while passing urine
Blood in urine
Nausea or vomiting
Early evaluation helps determine the most suitable treatment for ureteric stones and prevents complications such as infection or kidney damage.
Effective Treatment for Ureteric Stones
The choice of procedure depends on the size, location, and severity of the stone. Our goal is complete ureteric stone removal with minimal discomfort and faster recovery.
Medical Management (For Small Stones)
Small ureteric stones may pass naturally with conservative management. This includes:
Adequate fluid
intake
Pain management medications
Alpha-blockers to help relax the ureter
Periodic monitoring with imaging
If the stone does not pass or symptoms worsen, procedural treatment is recommended.
Ureteroscopy for Ureteric Stones
Ureteroscopy for ureteric stones is a minimally invasive endoscopic procedure. A thin, flexible instrument is passed through the urinary passage into the ureter to directly visualize the stone.
Depending on the size and location, the stone may be removed using specialized instruments or treated with laser energy during the procedure. No external incisions are required.
Laser Treatment for Ureteric Stones
Laser treatment for ureteric stones is performed during ureteroscopy using a technique called Laser Lithotripsy.
In this procedure, a laser fiber is introduced through the endoscope to fragment the stone into smaller particles. These fragments are then either extracted or allowed to pass naturally through urine.
DJ Stent Placement (When Required)
In certain cases, a temporary Double J (DJ) stent may be placed to relieve obstruction, support urine flow, or aid recovery after stone removal. The stent is removed after a short period as advised by the urologist.
