Common mistakes people make during the treatment of urinary stones. Urinary tract stones are a common and frequent disease in urology. Despite the fact that the general public is very familiar with stones, delayed treatment still occurs from time to time. The two examples above are typical. The reason for this is that there are many misconceptions about the treatment of stones. 1. Extracorporeal lithotripsy is less expensive, less painful, and not hospitalized, and is often used by patients as the preferred method of stone treatment. In fact, many stones are not suitable for extracorporeal lithotripsy, and the number of lithotripsy should not exceed 3 times. 2. Open surgery can be seen clearly and the surgery is thorough, which is safer than minimally invasive treatment. Example 2 is such in a psychological. In fact, with the update of equipment, fewer and fewer stones need open surgery, minimally invasive treatment of stones, not only less traumatic, fast recovery, and the efficacy is even better than open surgery. 3. No treatment is needed if there is no discomfort from stone disease. In fact, the clinical manifestations are not necessarily proportional to the degree of hydrocele, that is to say, severe hydrocele, can have only mild symptoms, or even no discomfort. Many patients have serious damage to the kidney or even loss of function when they visit the doctor. 4. Everything will be fine once the stone is cured. It is not known that stone disease has a high recurrence rate and often recurs unknowingly. Therefore, it should be reviewed regularly.
