Advanced Laser Kidney Stone Removal & Urology Center in Kalyan Nagar, Bangalore

Common symptoms of kidney stones include sudden or severe sharp pain in the lower back or side (flank), pain that may radiate toward the lower abdomen or groin, pink or dark urine, painful or frequent urination, nausea and vomiting. Symptoms can vary depending on the stone's size and location.

Laser kidney stone procedures such as RIRC and URSL are performed under appropriate anesthesia, so you should not feel pain during the procedure. Because these procedures are performed through the urinary tract without a large external incision, recovery is generally easier than traditional open surgery. Some patients may experience temporary discomfort, burning urination or stent related symptoms after the procedure.

Recovery depends on the size and location of the stone, the procedure performed and your overall health. Many patients can walk within several hours after surgery and may be discharged the same day or within 24 hours when clinically appropriate. Light daily activities can often be resumed within a few days, while your urologist will advise when you can return to work, exercise and other activities.

The right urologist depends on your condition, treatment needs and the surgeon's relevant experience. Senior urologists at Gifted Hands Hospital provide evaluation and treatment for kidney stones, urinary tract conditions, prostate disorders and other urological problems, including endourological and laser procedures.

A temporary DJ stent may be recommended after some kidney stone procedures to help maintain urine drainage and allow the ureter to heal. Whether a stent is required depends on factors such as the stone, swelling, infection risk and the type of procedure. Your urologist will advise how long it should remain and when it should be removed.

Some small stones can pass naturally with hydration, pain management and, when appropriate, prescribed medical expulsive therapy. However, the likelihood of spontaneous passage depends on the stone's size, location and type. Larger stones or stones causing persistent obstruction, infection, severe symptoms or impaired kidney function may require a procedure such as URSL, RIRC or PCNL.

Cashless treatment may be available for eligible patients and procedures, subject to the patient's insurance policy, network eligibility and approval from the insurer or TPA. Gifted Hands Hospital's team can assist with the insurance pre-authorization process for eligible kidney stone procedures such as URSL, RIRC and PCNL.

Recurrent kidney stones can be associated with inadequate fluid intake, high dietary sodium, certain dietary patterns, family history, metabolic conditions and the type of stone formed. Prevention depends on the underlying cause. A urologist may recommend stone analysis, metabolic evaluation, dietary modifications and an individualized hydration plan to reduce the risk of recurrence.

Common symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) include frequent urination, waking at night to urinate, difficulty starting the urine stream, weak or interrupted flow, urgency and a feeling that the bladder has not completely emptied.

Treatment depends on the severity of symptoms, prostate size, urinary obstruction and the patient's overall health. Options may include lifestyle measures, prescription medicines and procedures such as TURP or laser prostate surgery when clinically indicated. A urologist will recommend the most appropriate treatment after evaluation.
