How Can Stones In Bilateral Kidneys Be Treated?
Hi. I did ultrasound yesterday. I have stone in bilateral kidneys. It shows that in right Kidney there is 9.2 mm stone in lower calyx with fullness of pelvicalyceal system. Radiologist asked me to have an x-ray to check if there is any stone in urine pipe. But there is no stone in urine pipe. Now is it a cause of any concern?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The 9.2 mm sized kidney stone needs to be removed since this syone can move down in the ureter and cause intense pain. I suggest you to consult your surgeon for treatment modalities best suitable for the stone. Management of kidney stones depend on size and location of stone in kidney.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
