Is It Normal To Have Pain Post Scope Procedure?

My father in law went in for the scope procedure because he recently passed kidney stones. This article is saying gallstones to my knowledge I thought they were different. After his procedure, he is in allot of pain. We were told it would take a few hours. His procedure was done approx. 3:00 pm and they have to admit him because his pain is so bad. They did take a bx so now we are waiting. Is this outcome normal for that test? Thank you

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Pain is quite common after uro-endoscopic procedures and will be more severe is biopsy has taken. He can take analgesics like Tramadol for pain relief. In severe pain, intravenous analgesics may be required. Nothing much to worry and pain will be settled in couple of days. Further treatment will be based on biopsy reports.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
