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 review my report and let me know if I am suffering from a urinary tract infection. Also, could you explain what culture yields mixed growth of organisms, more than 10,000 CFU per ml (more than 3 types of bacteria grown) means?

I have taken multiple antibiotics, and later my urine report showed normal results. However, I still feel like the infection is present. Today, I did another urine routine test and have attached the report. Kindly review it and advise further.
