After extracorporeal lithotripsy, patients usually have pain for about 3-5 days. Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy is used to crush stones in the body, mainly for stones with a diameter of about 1.2 cm, and to crush stones into small stones, which will be discharged one after another and can last for 3-5 days. During the process of stone expulsion, the stones will irritate the kidneys, ureter and urethra, and the patient will experience painful manifestations, as well as hematuria in the naked eye. About 1 week after the procedure, the physician will advise the patient to have a follow-up urological ultrasound to check the stone comminution and stone expulsion, and for patients with severe residual stones, another lithotripsy may be considered. Generally, patients can undergo up to 3 extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy procedures, but they should not be operated continuously. In addition, patients must drink more water and do some jumping exercises appropriately after the operation to promote stone discharging and to facilitate the patient’s symptoms to subside.
