I have a 13mm kidney stone in the lower pole of my right kidney and it's causing frequent stomach pain. Is it possible to treat this with medicine alone or will I need laser surgery? I'm really hoping to avoid surgery if there are other options.

I'm wondering if having 34 pus cells per high-power field in my urine is something to be concerned about. Everything else on my report seems normal, but do I need treatment for this? Would love your insight.

The presence of 3-4 PUS (pus) cells per high power field (HPF) in urine is generally considered mild and can occur due to factors like urinary tract irritation or a minor infection. Since the rest of your report is normal, it may not require treatment, but it's always a good idea to monitor for any symptoms like pain or discomfort, and follow up with your doctor if needed.
