How to quickly relieve the pain of stones

The pain caused by stones can be relieved by medication, hot compresses, and body position adjustment, but it is strongly recommended to see a doctor as early as possible in the early stages of symptoms to identify the cause and treatment plan. Severe pain may require emergency treatment. Stone pain is usually caused by spasms caused by stones irritating or blocking narrow parts such as the urinary tract and bile duct. Rapid pain relief can relieve symptoms, but more importantly, it is necessary to solve the root problem as soon as possible.

The pain of stones often occurs in the abdomen, back or side of the waist, and may be accompanied by nausea, vomiting, hematuria or difficulty urinating. At home, you can temporarily use hot compresses to relax the muscles in the waist and abdomen and relieve spasmodic pain. Appropriate body position adjustment, such as knee-chest position, can help relieve pressure and may also move the stones slightly, temporarily relieving pain. For severe pain, taking over-the-counter analgesics such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen may help. If a clear diagnosis is made in the hospital, the doctor may provide stronger analgesics such as opioids, or use antispasmodics to relax smooth muscles to relieve obvious discomfort. Infusion and hydration can increase urine output and help small stones pass out of the body. If the stone is large and causes complete obstruction, surgery such as ureteroscopy lithotripsy or extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy may be required to solve the problem.

To prevent and manage the pain associated with stones, you need to pay attention to adjusting your diet and improving your lifestyle in your daily life. Reduce the amount of foods rich in oxalic acid, such as strong tea, spinach, and chocolate; drink more water to dilute urine concentration and promote stone excretion; eat less high-salt or high-protein foods to reduce the burden on the kidneys. Regular physical examinations and understanding of family genetic background are also particularly important for high-risk groups. Do not ignore feeling unwell at ordinary times, and seek professional medical advice immediately to avoid developing more serious problems.
