Does it matter if stones cause hydronephrosis

If the stones cause hydronephrosis or not, it needs to be judged according to the specific circumstances.

If the stones cause hydronephrosis for a short time, the stones are small in size, and the amount of hydronephrosis is not much, there is no substantial damage to the kidney tissue, and the kidney function is not affected. At this time, it does not matter. The patient can be treated with drugs that relax the urethra, such as tamsulosin hydrochloride sustained-release capsules, terazosin hydrochloride tablets, etc., at the doctor's suggestion. If the stones cause hydronephrosis for a long time, it will cause serious damage to kidney function, which is usually more important.
