The symptoms of bladder stones in women are mainly frequent urination, urgency, painful urination, and even hematuria.
Bladder stones are movable and will rub against the bladder mucosa, stimulating the bladder to produce involuntary contractions, resulting in frequent urination, urinary urgency and urinary pain. At the same time in the process will damage the bladder mucosa, resulting in capillary rupture bleeding, blood cells into the urine, causing hematuria.
Patients may also experience soreness and discomfort in the perineum and lower abdomen. Stones tend to cause bladder outlet obstruction, with symptoms such as interrupted urination, difficulty in urination and pain, but by changing the position, urination will occur again.
If a CT or ultrasound reveals bladder stones, or if there is an interruption of urinary flow you must go to the hospital and seek prompt medical attention. When the stone is small, the patient can achieve the effect of stone removal by drinking more water, regular urination, ensuring the daily urine volume is above 2500 ml, appropriate light diet, more sports and exercise.
If the stones are large, surgical treatment is needed, such as transurethral cystoscopic holmium laser lithotripsy.
