Kidney stones usually do not cause leg edema directly.
Kidney stones are formed due to the accumulation of urinary components in the kidney, which is a common disease of the urinary system. After kidney stones occur, stones can stimulate or damage the kidney mucosa in the kidney, causing pain, hematuria, stone discharge and other symptoms, generally do not directly cause leg edema. However, if the patient has large kidney stones, or long-term existence, it may cause hydronephrosis, and then cause leg edema symptoms.
Patients should pay attention to rest at ordinary times, adjust the diet structure reasonably, and appropriately reduce the amount of water.
