Three aspects of kidney stones: what are the symptoms of kidney stones

Symptom 1: pain: pain is the main symptom of renal calculi. When the stone is large and the degree of movement in the renal pelvis is small, the pain is mostly dull, sometimes dull; when the stone is small and the degree of movement in the renal pelvis is large, it is easy to cause obstruction of the ureteropelvic junction and renal colic. Renal colic is a sudden and severe pain that starts from the waist and radiates down the ureter to the bladder. The pain can also radiate to the vulva. The pain is paroxysmal, usually lasting for several minutes or as long as several hours, with nausea and vomiting. Sometimes the patient's face is pale, sweating, and in a state of collapse

Symptom 2: hematuria: hematuria is the second important symptom of renal calculi. Pain and hematuria are the characteristics of renal and ureteral calculi. Especially when physical activity is more, can produce ache and hematuria suddenly. But hematuria is generally light, sometimes the naked eye can not see, can only see from a few to most red blood cells under the microscope, called microscopic hematuria. However, when the mucosa is seriously damaged by stones, gross hematuria is often found. Pain and hematuria are often induced when the patient is active. When the stone is complicated with infection, purulent cells appear in the urine, with frequent urination and painful urination.

Symptom 3: fever, chills: when secondary acute pyelonephritis or pyonephrosis, there may be fever, chills, chills and other systemic symptoms. Complete obstruction of bilateral upper urinary tract stones or renal stones can lead to anuria.
