Common Questions and Answers about Kidney stones symptoms bloating

Hello,
Since the kindey stone is 7 mm, so the symptoms seem unrelated to the kidney stones. Since you are having pedal or leg edema, hence your cardiac, liver and kidney functions need to be assessed for which I suggest you to consult a physician immediately. Abdominal causes like irritable bowel syndrome can also cause such symptoms. Common symptoms include abdominal cramping or pain, bloating and gassiness, and altered bowel habits(alternate constipation and loose stools).
If there were kidney stones, then together with other symptoms, you'd experience burning during urination. Kidney stone can cause really strong and sharp colic pain on one side of abdomen (going elswhere from the kidney area in the back or by (usually) one side of abdomen down to the groin. This pain usually causes constipation.
Gas, bloating, diarrhea...this goes more with diverticulitis. Temperature means infection, you should get antibiotics (probably according to stool culture).
Causes of blood in urine other than the two causes that have been ruled out include kidney infections, kidney disease, trauma, bladder stones, Interstitial cystitis, tumors, etc.
In men prostatitis can present with all the symptoms described above.
Additional investigations required include blood tests to check for kidney function and a cystoscopy to check for injury to the bladder lining.
Emerg visit this month showed (big surprise) on CT, two left kidney stones 2-3 mm, one in kidney and one between bladder and kidney. This is the first time CT has been done laying on stomach. If part of this has been kidney stones all along, why might I be getting severe abdominal bloat with these episodes? I have not passed stone yet (week 3) but put on Flomax 3 days ago and bloat seems to be reducing. Thanks for your suggestions.
I have suffered with c/o kidney stones off and on for as long as I can remember. For about the last three years I have week long spells of extreme fatigue, lethargy, pain up and down my whole right side of my body, dizziness (feel like I am going to pass out), nausea, horrible lower back and sciatic pain, weakness, and painful gas and bloating. I can go from feeling really good to bed ridden within 24 hrs. Until recently I thought the spells may have something to do with the stones.
I have had pain for 4 weeks now. Originally diagnosed as kidney stones. I was put on antibiotics for a week on day 4 and booked in for an ultra sound. I was also given diclofenac to help with the pain. Avo upper data later the pain did not get better. I went back to the doctors and they weren't sure it was a kidney stone. Occasionally pain worsened on some days. Was prescribed codeine for when I needed it. I continued having pain and was signed off work. I only had fever on day 2.
I am new to kidney stones. I passed my first kidney stone about 2 months ago and I know I have two more. A 2mm on one side and a 4 on the other side. The first one I had happened at night, so I woke up in pain. I am just wondering is there symptoms you can feel when you are awake. Just 4 days ago, I had 4 very sharp pains in the right side my back over a 2 hour period. Today I am hit with a wave of nausea.
The doctor tested by urine and my blood and gave me an injection of penicillin and 7 days of cipro. The UTI symptoms (burning, bloating, etc.) went away immediately and have not returned. However, my kidneys were still tender even after finishing the antibiotics. I went back to another doctor and he prescribed me 10 more days of cipro without retesting my urine or blood. During those 10 days, all symptoms went away and my kidneys felt completely normal.
Other possibilities are irritable bowel syndrome, hepatitis(inflammation of the liver), kidney stones, pneumonia, musculoskeletal pain, lower rib fracture and malignancy. Irritation of the nerves supplying this area can also cause pain. Irritation can be due to nerve compression or pinching due to any spine related pathology.
In females,ovarian pathology can cause such symptoms. You should get an ultrasound right upper abdominal area done to confirm the diagnosis.
I have a male friend who's been dealin w/ kidney stones for about a year quite now. He's on medi-cal in CA & he's not gettin anywhere w/ doctor's. He's been waitin for 1 mo. now for a referral to see a specialist & in the mean time his symptoms seems to be gettin more serious.
Often blood in the urine can be from crystals (like kidney stones) that pass and irritate the lining of the bladder or ureter. Or infection as Michelle mentioned.
Ovarian cancer is pretty quiet as far as symptoms go and blood in the urine is not one of the first things you would notice. Usually bloating, constipation, dull ache in the abdomen, vague things we as women tend to ignore.
Honestly you're MUCH more likely to get a bacterial infection from the natural bacteria on his hand than you are to get pregnant. Also stress can cause nausea, vomiting, dizziness, headaches, fatigue, appetite change, late period, bloating, etc. So can quite a few other things so it's very difficult to tell if you're pregnant based on symptoms alone.
3 weeks after this happened or if your period is late, take a home pregnancy test.
Hi,
Renal calculi can vary in size from as small as grains of sand to as large as a golf ball. Kidney stones typically leave the body by passage in the urine stream, and many stones are formed and passed without causing symptoms.
If stones grow to sufficient size before passage—on the order of at least 2-3 millimeters—they can cause obstruction of the ureter.
The treatment for kidney stones depends on their size and what they are made of and also if they are causing pain or obstructing the urinary tract. Small stones usually pass through the urinary tract without treatment. It is good advice to stay well hydrated as that should prevent the stones from getting any bigger or new ones from forming.
For kidney pain you may take a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug such as ibuprofen or naproxen .
It's been three weeks since my diagnosis of having multiple kidney stones on the right side. The Radiologist who gave me my stat results said I would pass them and didnt think straining my urine was something I needed to do. I finally got in to see my urologist he was upset I wasn't straining and wanted me to have surgery since I will be undergoing IVF treatments in March. I agreed because I don't want to deal with flare up while pregnant.
bloating is such a common symptom that can be due to irritable bowels, bad food, too much alcohol consumption, metabolic derangements such as low thyroid, or some process irritating the abdomen such as kidney stones, inflammation of appendix, colon, or growths in the gyn system.
In the process of sorting out persistent and unexplained bloating, a careful gyn evaluation should be done.
This includes pelvic exam, rectal, and transvaginal pelvic ultrasound.
