Does Kidney Stone Pain Usually Happen in Your Lower Back and Sides?

Why does a kidney stone occur?

Kidney stones form when the minerals and other chemicals in your urine, such as calcium, oxalate, and uric acid, combine to form crystals.

Crystals combine to make one or more stones. Stones form when your urine lacks the necessary moisture and other elements to keep them from forming.

A kidney stone can be as tiny as a grain of sand, and you can pass it without even knowing, but a bigger one can block your urine flow and hurt a lot.

Variety of factors plays a role, including what you eat and certain medications. You are more prone to get kidney stones if you or someone in your family has had them.

But, if all you’ve heard about kidney stones is how painful they are, how can you tell if your pain is caused by a kidney stone?

The pain is commonly referred to as renal colic. Most patients report that the pain begins suddenly and intensifies over time, or that it subsides and reappears after a few minutes. The pain may fluctuate in intensity from time to time. A person usually does not notice the symptoms of a kidney stone until it passes from the kidney into the ureter, which is the tube that transports urine from the kidney to the bladder.

Where does kidney stone pain hurt?

A kidney stone does not usually produce symptoms until it moves about within the kidney or enters one of the ureters.

If a kidney stone becomes trapped in the ureters, it can obstruct urine flow and cause the kidney to enlarge and the ureter to spasm, both of which can be quite painful.

The size of the stone may not affect the degree of the discomfort. These differences are caused by the stone’s transit through the urinary system. The ureter tries to push the lodged stone towards the bladder, causing intense abdominal agony. If the stones are in the urinary bladder, you may experience pain in the lower abdomen. Men get pain in their testicles and scrotum.

Sharp pain in the side and back, directly behind the ribs

Radiating pain to the lower abdomen and groyne

Pain that comes in waves with

You may feel pain or a burning feeling while urinating.

Among the signs and symptoms are:

Urine that is pink, red, or brown

Urine that is cloudy or odorous

A constant desire to urinate, urinating more frequently than normal, or urinating in little amounts

Vomiting and nausea

If you have an infection, you may experience fever and chills.

The pain associated with a kidney stone is often noticed after it has developed and is moving through your urinary tract,” Dr. Kannady explains.” Furthermore, because of anatomical differences, men and women describe kidney stone pain significantly differently”. Not to mention that pain is relative, with everyone having a different pain threshold.

It is critical to visit your doctor whenever you are in discomfort. However, if you are suffering discomfort, even if it is mild, in conjunction with other symptoms, you should consult a doctor.

How long do the symptoms of kidney stones last?

As previously stated, the duration of these symptoms might range from a week to a month and beyond. Even if you believe your kidney stone pain has faded, it is critical to contact your doctor because occasional pain is frequent with this illness.

i had kidney stones when i was 10yo. but when a 10yo girl starts complaining of intermittent stomach pain and blood in the toilet, medical professionals will laugh and say “congrats on becoming a woman, go buy some pads and go home.”

well. as you may imagine, kidney stone pain is significantly different than traditional cramp pain, and also significantly worse. like unimaginably bad. like genuinely being run through with a sword, being slowly twisted, for hours and hours at a time.

so being told “this is just your life once a month for the next 30-40 years” was perhaps the most terrifying thing i had ever heard at that point. and i remember, for the first time in my life, saying “i would rather kill myself” and meaning it 100%.

i got home from the hospital - again, 10 years old - and immediately started googling hysterectomies.

Little piece of love and advice--If the doctor prescribes you pain medication following a procedure, they expect you to need it. If you do, take the pain medicine.

[beawritingbooks]

I just passed another goddamn kidney stone.

You know that spikey ball thing at the end of a flail (medieval weapon)? Well, passing a kidney stone feels like pissing out one of those spikey ball things.

Or, a knife. It definitely feels like pissing out a knife.

I hate everything!
