Does it hurt to pull out double J tube after kidney stone operation

The double J tube is

usually made of an inert material and belongs to a ureteral stent. It is used for urinary calculi surgery. The double J

tube has the effect of dilating the ureter to prevent ureteral stricture. The J tube is usually taken out one month after the placement. When it is taken out, the patient will be injected with anesthetics and the foreign body will be taken with the aid of cystoscope.

Therefore, in summary, the double J tube will not hurt very much after renal calculi surgery. After the

double J tube is taken out, drink plenty of water to promote urination. Do a good job in the hygiene care of the surgical site, which can effectively prevent inflammation and infection. The diet on weekdays should be light and easy to digest. Avoid eating spicy foods such as chili onions and garlic. Avoid strenuous exercise or squatting movements.

If discomfort occurs, it is recommended to see a doctor in time to clarify the cause and carry out treatment.
