Comprehensive Stone Disease

Comprehensive Kidney Stone Treatment in Ranchi

Comprehensive stone disease is medically known as urolithiasis or nephrolithiasis. It is a condition that leads to the formation of kidney stones in the kidney, ureter, bladder, or urethra. Kidney stones are hard deposits of mineral salts that form when urine has less water in it. These stones can be of different sizes; smaller ones pass through urine, but larger ones need to be medically removed.

Manipal Hospitals offers  Comprehensive Kidney Stone Treatment in Ranchi by using advanced diagnostic tools and state-of-the-art treatment options. A team of experienced urologists, specialising in minimally invasive techniques, ensures effective management of kidney stones.

Why is it done?

Kidney Stone Treatment is recommended:

 

  • To remove kidney stones

  • To relieve pain and discomfort

  • Prevent further kidney-related complications

  • Prevent urinary tract infections or blockages

  • Prevent the recurrence of stones

Treatment options like Laser and Shockwave Lithotripsy in Ranchi offer effective results with minimal discomfort.

What happens before kidney stone treatment?

Before comprehensive kidney stone treatment, the patient undergoes the following:

  • Evaluation of medical history and physical examination

  • Blood tests and urine tests to check for infection

  • Imaging techniques such as MRI, CT, or X-rays

  • Counselling on treatment plan, diet, and lifestyle

What happens during kidney stone treatment?

The procedure is typically performed under general anaesthesia to minimise discomfort. Laser Lithotripsy and Shockwave Lithotripsy (SWL) are two of the most common procedures.

  • Laser Lithotripsy: A thin, flexible scope is inserted through the urinary tract, and a laser breaks the stone into tiny fragments, which are then removed.

  • Shockwave Lithotripsy (SWL): It uses targeted sound waves to break stones into smaller pieces that can pass through the urinary tract.

A trained team of urologists performs the procedure with a focus on safety and precision.

What happens after the treatment?

Patients require 1-2 days of hospital stay for monitoring and recovery. Most patients return to work within a week. The care team schedules regular follow-ups and provides guidance to support recovery and treatment success.

What are the risks associated with kidney stone treatment?

Laser and Shockwave Lithotripsy in Ranchi are generally safe and effective. However, few common risks include bleeding, infection, and pain during or after the procedure. Shock Wave Lithotripsy may cause bruising or blood in the urine, and not all stone fragments may pass through the urine. Laser lithotripsy can lead to temporary discomfort, urinary tract irritation, or injury to the ureter.

Getting comprehensive kidney stone treatment in Ranchi right away helps prevent these risks.
 

Common symptoms include severe pain in the back or side, blood in the urine, nausea, vomiting, frequent urination, and a burning sensation while urinating.

Although more common in adults, kidney stones can also affect children due to genetics, diet, or certain medical conditions.
