After kidney stone lithotripsy, the patient has urethral pain, which may be due to incomplete stone excretion or infection. General treatment, surgery and drug treatment can be adopted.

How to treat urinary tract pain after kidney stone lithotripsy

1. General treatment: CT or B-ultrasound can be used to clarify the size and location of the stone. If the stone is small, drink plenty of water to increase urine volume and help the stone to be expelled by itself.

2. Surgical treatment: If the stone is large, the stone can be pushed to the bladder site through ureteroscopy or cystoscopy, or the stone can be crushed outside the body again to facilitate expulsion.

3. Drug treatment: If accompanied by urinary system infection, antibiotics such as ampicillin cefixime can be used according to medical advice, and antispasmodic and analgesic drugs such as atropine anisodamine can also be used.

The above drugs should be applied under the guidance of a doctor.
