What is the pain after ureteroscopy?


Empowering you to live your best life.
Ureteroscopic surgery is usually performed to crush the stones in the ureter and then let the stones pass out. During the operation, due to damage to the inner wall of the ureter, the patient will show pain and discomfort after the anesthesia fails after the operation. This is a normal situation. Generally, analgesic drugs can be used appropriately after the operation, and more water can be drunk to increase urine production and flush the ureter in time. This is conducive to recovery as soon as possible. However, after ureteroscopy, pain may also be due to incomplete fragmentation of the ureteral stones. When the stones are still stuck in the ureter during the downward movement, renal colic appears again. This situation usually requires timely review of the ureteral stones after surgery. If there are still stones, further treatment is required.
