Can urinary calculi cause stomach discomfort

Urinary stones generally refer to urinary system stones. Whether urinary system stones can cause stomach discomfort needs to be judged according to the stone location.

Usually urinary system stones can be divided into upper urinary tract stones and lower urinary tract stones. Lower urinary tract stones usually involve the bladder and urethra, and will not cause stomach discomfort symptoms. Upper urinary tract stones can exist in the upper ureter and kidneys, and some nerves governing the kidneys and ureters exist in communication branches with the nerves of the gastrointestinal tract, which may cause stomach discomfort.

It is recommended that patients with stomach discomfort should see a doctor in time to clarify the cause so as not to delay the disease.
