Kidney Stones? Weird Sensation In My Penis Area
About 24 hours ago, I noticed that after I urinated, I would feel a weird sensation in my penis area. I thought I had an infection of some sort, but later through the day, my left kidney started to feel a bit weird.
This prompted me to believe that I might have some sort of kidney stone. I'm not sure what to do, or how to approach this, but figured I should see a urologist? I have thought about going to the ER as well.
The pain isn't unbearable, but I can feel a slight discomfort; something telling me, something is not right. There's no blood in the urine though.
I've been trying to drink lots of water tonight to see how it'll go.
Will it flush out on its own? What should I do?
Pain While Stones Still In Kidney?
Is it possible to have kidney stone pain while the stones are still in the kidney? I have about seven stones in my right kidney and five in my left... I've had lower back pain for almost a month straight and nothing makes the pain go away. I'm trying to get my urologist to call me back, but that is next to impossible if I'm not in the emergency room doubled over in pain. Any suggestions/comments are welcome here

View 1 RepliesPain After Kidney Stones And Stent
I had my first kidney stone in February of this year. I had lithotripsy twice on my right side and also a stent. The stent was removed after three days. I have had a constant stabbing pain where the stent once was. I have seen many different doctors and been to the ER several times. Each CT scan has come back negative for more stones and doctors cannot find a reason I am still in pain. Anyone have the same problem?
View 1 RepliesPossible Kidney Stones? Pain Below Bottom Bra Strap
I am extremely frustrated. I have been sick since Aug 27 with extreme back pain. The pain is right below the bottom of my bra strap on the right side (slightly above where the I thought the kidneys are located). I am also having pain in the right side and rt groin area. The Dr's say that I have a lot of blood and crystals in my urine, but the CT scans don't show any kidney stones. The CT scan did show that the right kidney was swollen and the ER DR said that either the urethra or ureter (can't remember which) was swollen and enlarged as if I had passed a stone. I had an appointment with a urologist last week, and even before introducing himself, he told me it wasn't a kidney stone and referred me to an Ortho DR. He didn't examine me at all - did not touch me. He did suggest that I have cystscope, but said it would not help my back pain. Therefore, I didn't do it. I am usually a very tough girl. When I gave birth to my son several years ago, I didn't utter a single complaint (natural childbirth). But several times over that past few weeks, I have found myself in tears because the pain is so bad. I have had everything checked - gall bladder, liver, pancreas, spleen .....everything. What is a girl to do? I don't normally take any pain meds or narcotics. I am usually extremely healthy.

Hi everyone! I know that kidney stones are terribly painful and that there are various unpleasant treatments to get rid them.

View 2 RepliesKidney Stones, Pain, Nausea, Depression
I'm not sure where to put this and I'm fairly certain I do not have enough space for all of this. But I will try anyways.
I am 27 years old and male. And my life right now is not great. I have a long list of medical problems most of which have gone untreated for years and are all more or less working together to ruin my life. Since I do not have the appropriate length here to explain all of this a simple list will have to do for now.
Current Issues:
Chronic Pain left and right flank
Chronic Nausea (will result in vomiting)
ADHD (untreated)
Anxiety (Untreated)
Depression (untreated)
Sleeping problems
Eating/Weight problems
Chronic Kidney stones
UPJ obstruction and Hydronephrosis of the Left Kidney (3 surgeries to repair)
What I NEED help with is Identifying what I need to do to make this better. I have been seeing doctors for the past 23 years of my Life. I honestly need A LOT more space to explain all of this.
Pain After Blasted Kidney Stones Procedure
I'm 22 and got my kidney stone blasted two days ago (10-2-13) and I was wondering if anyone else has had this procedure? I am in a world of pain. and I was just curious how long I can expect this pain to last. My urologist said the stone was at the opening of my kidney and it was about 6mm. They blasted it and put in a stent. I feel like I have been beaten with a baseball bat. I was just curious if anyone else has felt this pain and how long I should be expecting this to last.
View 1 RepliesSudden Chest Pain Sudden - When Walk Or Run
I often get chest pains when i walk or run. I am 23 years old male. i had a recent spleen extreme but the non invasive version back in october.
I never had this kind of pain before and I'm underweight, blood is fine.
I did however blackout a month after my surgery only to find out I had huge amounts of lymph nodes throughout my system.
Doctors believe this to be a reaction from surgery and my injections prior.
The pain hurts badly in my right chest. Last for about 10-30 seconds and goes away. Does not happen when I sit or sleep. And has next to no affect on my working or active lifestyle.
Kidney Stones :: Pain Inside - Ball Valving
I have been passing stones regularly for the past 3-4 years, I've had multiple scans (ultrasound and CT scans), seen a nephrologist and urologist, I've had the surgery to have 11 removed from both my kidneys with stents. The urologist left 4 in due to them being too small to grab. This was 2 months ago and since then the 0.1 cm stones have grown, I have passed one 2 weeks ago and was told that the other three are still in my kidneys and should not bother me, fine, accept I've been in severe pain to the point it's brought me to my knees. My urologist sent me to have 2 ultrasounds in the last 3 weeks and a ct scan. The ultrasounds (two different us techs from two different times) both said I had a 5x4mm in my left and a 6x8mm in my right but the CT scan said that I have a 3mm in my right and a 2mm in my left? Not sure what to believe all I know is that they are non obstructive but my kidneys are hurting so bad, could the ct scan be wrong? I also have what's called phlebotomist in my pelvis which mimics a kidney stone but no other test showed that. What's really going on?! I've heard of a thing called "ball valving" could this be what's causing the pain and if so ALL doctors have told me that if they are in your kidney you can't feel them! So frustrated PLEASE HELP!!!
