kidney stone treatment

 

Kidney stones are hard deposits made of minerals and salts that form inside the kidneys. They can cause intense pain, especially when passing through the urinary tract. A skilled urology doctor in Madurai can help identify the type and size of the stone to recommend the right treatment approach.

Treatment varies depending on the stone’s size and location. Small stones often pass on their own with increased water intake and pain relief medication. For larger stones, medical procedures like shock wave therapy (ESWL), ureteroscopy, or percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) may be required. These methods are safe and effective for kidney stone removal surgery in Madurai.

• Shock wave therapy to break stones into smaller pieces
• Ureteroscopy to remove or break stones with a scope
• PCNL for large or complex stones through a small back incision
