How long it takes to recover from ureteroscopic laser lithotripsy depends on the size and location of the stone and the procedure, etc. The shortest recovery time is 3-5 days, and the longest time can be up to about 3 months. 1. In the case of urethra or bladder stones, after laser lithotripsy, the stones can usually be discharged from the body relatively quickly, and the normal state can be restored in about 3-5 days. 2. In the case of ureteral stones, the operation alone can be discharged in 3-5 days, and the stent tube left in the body is usually removed in about 4 weeks after the operation. 3. In the case of kidney stones, the recovery time after transurethral soft ureteroscopy laser lithotripsy is about 1 month; in the case of percutaneous nephrolithotripsy laser lithotripsy, the recovery time is about 3 months. This type of surgery is traumatic to the kidneys, so clinically it is mostly recommended that patients do not do strenuous exercise within three months after the surgery. The recovery time after laser lithotripsy is determined by many factors and cannot be generalized. Patients are advised to go to the hospital for regular checkups, drink more water and urinate more often to avoid urinary retention, and do not eat stimulating foods.
