Brief Answer:
Require further work up.Relevant data suggested.

Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir.

I understand your concern.

Your symptoms largely suggest of Hematuria.

This requires initial investigation to determine the cause.

The usual causes can be a stone or an infection.

Considering your age, it's very important to have a baseline ultrasound of KUB(Kidney, ureter and bladder system).Additionally Urine microscopy for Malignant cells has to be done routinely.

Many of the cases with a stone disorder also show such symptoms.This can be detected on CT scan abdomen more precisely.CT scan also helps to rule out any mass lesions responsible for your symptoms.

I advise you to visit a Urologist or a Nephrologist with baseline Ultrasound scan and complete urine examination.

Based on the results, you will be advised whether to go for CT scan or not.

You can avail the services of following doctors for this health issue at YYYY hospital.

1. Dr. XXXXX MS MCh.
Consultant Urosurgeon.

2. Dr. XXXXXX MD DM.
Consultant Nephrologist.

Further management is based on the test results.

Review with reports.

Post your further queries if any.

Thank you.

Sir,
Can I get ultrasound abdomen instead CT since my insurance will cover only this test.
Thank you
doctor
Answered by Dr. Suresh Heijebu (4 minutes later)
Brief Answer:
CT is superior to Ultrasound

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,

I understand your concern.

Yes, you can get Ultrasound abdomen but the exact site and size of the calculus and the pelvi calyceal system can be delineated better through CT Abdomen.

You can get Ultrasound abdomen as of now to rule out presence of stone.

Post your further queries if any,

Thank you.
