What are the symptoms of kidney stones in women? One look and you'll know

Kidney stones are a common disease in life. When this disease occurs, it is often extremely painful and unbearable, so many patients suffer from it. So what are the specific symptoms if women suffer from kidney stones in life?

1. Pain

Some time ago, Miss Liu came to our hospital for consultation. She was engaged in interior design and sat in front of the computer for 8 hours. She forgot to drink water when she was busy with work and lacked opportunities for exercise. One day, on the way home, she suddenly felt unbearable abdominal pain, like a knife cutting. When she was almost to the hospital, she also felt pain in her vulva and inner thighs. When her husband saw her in the hospital, she was pale and had cold sweat on her face. After examination, it was found that she had kidney stones.

In fact, many women's kidney stones will worsen their kidney disease after strenuous activities. The pain is often accompanied by pale complexion, cold sweats, nausea, and vomiting. In severe cases, symptoms of kidney stones in women may appear, such as weak and rapid pulse and low blood pressure. The pain often occurs in paroxysms, or may suddenly stop or ease with a certain movement, leaving dull pain in the waist and abdomen.

2. Hematuria

Kidney stones can directly damage the mucous membrane of the kidneys and ureters, followed by severe pain and hematuria. Some stones can be seen under a microscope, and some can be seen with the naked eye. If the stone damage is severe, the hematuria will also be severe because its severity is related to the degree of damage.

3. Pyuria

Once the kidneys and ureters are infected together, pus cells will appear in the urine, and kidney stone patients will also experience lower back pain and high fever.

4. Others

Some female patients have obstructive stones, which can easily cause hydronephrosis, renal insufficiency, and may also cause gastrointestinal symptoms or anemia, etc.

Because everyone's physical constitution is different and the specific details of the symptoms are also different, female patients with kidney stones need to ask a nephrology specialist to analyze their condition in a timely manner and take symptomatic treatment. Be sure to avoid blind use of medication, which will cause difficulties in later treatment.
