Why does ureteral calculi radiate pain?

summary

Ureteral calculi, mostly from the kidney, also include renal calculi or extracorporeal shock wave stone fragments fall caused. Primary ureteral calculi are rare because urinary salt crystals are easily discharged into the bladder with urine. When there are ureteral stricture, diverticulum, foreign body and other inducing factors, urinary retention and infection will promote the occurrence of ureteral calculi. Ureteral calculi are mostly single, the incidence of the left and right sides is the same, bilateral ureteral calculi are rare, and most commonly seen in young adults. The incidence rate is highest among the 20 to 40 years old, and male patients are much more than female patients. Let's take a look at the following.

Why does ureteral calculi radiate pain?

Tubal stenosis, because of ureteral stenosis, but also physiological stenosis, small stones are easy to stay in these narrow parts, resulting in incarceration; The incidence rate of urolithiasis in mountain area, desert, tropical and subtropical regions is high. Other factors include diet, water intake, disease and so on.

Second: the treatment of ureteral calculi. Non operative treatment, general treatment, a lot of water, can not drink or vomiting patients should be intravenous infusion; It can also be treated by removing stones; Generally speaking, ureteroscopic lithotomy can be used in any part of ureter; Surgical treatment was adopted after non-surgical treatment failed.

Third: symptoms of ureteral calculi. The symptoms of ureteral calculi and renal calculi are basically the same. The ureteral colic caused by the middle and upper ureteral calculi is one side of low back pain and microscopic hematuria. The pain belongs to the nature of colic and can radiate to the same side of the lower abdomen. Hematuria is mild, most of them only have underground hematuria, but hematuria will aggravate after the onset of pain.
