Two months ago, I experienced stomach pain and underwent an ultrasound scan. The report showed that the pelvicalyceal system in my left kidney is prominent, possibly due to a lower ureteric calculus (stone). The liver appears normal in size and shape, with no focal lesions or other abnormalities. After medication, my pain has reduced to minimal levels, but I want to be sure that there are no remaining stones. I am willing to consult at a good hospital for further evaluation. Please advise on how to confirm the absence of stones and what steps I should take next. Thank you.

Likely passed stone, but follow up scan helps confirm. Enlarged liver with normal structure is not concerning. Stay hydrated.

I have been experiencing pain on both sides of my abdomen, near the kidneys and ribcage. My physician advised an ultrasound, and the report indicates a left renal calculus and bilateral renal pelvis dilation, suggesting UTI or cystitis. Other organs like kidney, liver, and bladder appear normal. What should be my next step? Should I consult a kidney specialist or continue with a general physician?

I have been experiencing lower back pain since Monday which has become progressively worse. I have also been drinking excessive amounts of water about one pint every one and a half hours or less. I have a lack of appetite and feel full most of the time. I visited my GP and they checked my urine and blood pressure which were normal. I am going for blood tests on Monday and will wait for the results. Do you know what could be causing these symptoms? Thank you Jack.
