I have a 6mm kidney stone in my left kidney. Currently, I am experiencing constipation and a heavy feeling in my belly. My report mentions gas in the bowel detected by a 10 MHz scan. Could the constipation be related to the kidney stone. Please suggest how I can relieve the constipation and what steps I should take? Thank you, sir.

A 6mm kidney stone can cause discomfort but is usually managed with fluids and medication. Constipation and bloating may be due to dietary factors or intestinal gas. These are not directly caused by the kidney stone. Do get done Xray KUB and urine routine as soon as possible.

Please have a look at my report and let me know if there is any serious issue? I am planning for pregnancy.

Will CT KUB plain detect the cause behind burning urination and pain in the middle shaft of penis and tip of penis? I also have occasional groin discomfort for 1 year. There is no abdominal pain, no fever, no vomiting, and no nausea since 1 year. Sometimes there is burning while ejaculation. I am asking because CT KUB is costly and I am too stressed. I already did urine report 2 times which came normal and consulted urologist 2 times.

I have leucocytes and erythrocytes detected in my urine sample. Previously, my protein and potassium levels were also high, but those are now under control. I have attached my report for your review. Could you please help me understand what the problem might be?
