Symptoms of ureteral stones in women

Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Li Mingchuan
Symptoms of ureteral stones in women mainly include: 1. Pain: The typical pain is renal colic, often presenting as sudden, severe pain on one side of the lower back or flank. This pain is usually colicky in nature and may radiate to the abdomen, groin, or genital area. 2. Hematuria: Stones may cause hematuria, which can be visible to the naked eye or detected microscopically. This results primarily from mucosal injury to the urinary tract caused by the stone. 3. Urinary irritation symptoms: Some patients may experience symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and dysuria, which may be related to irritation of the urinary tract by the stone. 4. Other symptoms: Nausea, vomiting, fever, and other symptoms may also occur, potentially associated with urinary obstruction and infection caused by the stone.
