Old Zhao (pseudonym) stands by the toilet
Look at your own urinary specimens
There are also sporadic sediment-like particles
The mood is in a very good mood
It was the smoothest pee he had in 10 years

Suddenly can't pee out in the morning,
There is also blood in the catheter!
Old Zhao is 70 years old this year, 10 years ago, he suffered from a lot of diseases that elderly men have - prostatic hyperplasia. From the beginning of the increase in the number of nights, to the development of going out to find a toilet everywhere, "frequent urination, urgency, inexhaustible urine" these years have been "pestering" him, making him tortured.
One morning 2 years ago, Old Zhao hurriedly ran to the toilet, but he stood at the edge of the toilet for a long time, and his stomach was swollen and painful, that is, "not a drop".
Therefore, Lao Zhao entered the hospital for the first time because of "urine can not pee", inserted a catheter, drained the bag out of the turbid urine, but also mixed with blood.
Larger diameter 1.13 cm stones
The probe captured 2 of the stones
It turned out that in addition to prostate hyperplasia, Old Zhao also had several mung bean-sized stones in his bladder. In addition to being "choked on the neck" by the hypertrophic prostate, Lao Zhao's urethra was also blocked by these stones. Moreover, the bladder wall is damaged by the friction of the stones, resulting in hematuria.
Repeated insertion and removal of urinary catheters has become Lao Zhao's daily routine, but the situation has not improved, last week, he could not pee out again...
Old Zhao hurried to the consultation room of Wang Yanbin, deputy chief physician of the Department of Urology of the Third People's Hospital of Hangzhou. After examination, Lao Zhao's bladder stones grew as wide as a fingernail cover, and there were more than one, squeezed densely in the bladder, like a nest of bird eggs.
Wang Yanbin helplessly said that he had repeatedly persuaded Lao Zhao to undergo surgery, but Lao Zhao said every time that he could still urinate out by inserting a catheter, which was not a big problem.
"Doctor Wang, or surgery..." This time, Old Zhao finally stopped being stubborn and offered to request surgery. After repeated deliberations, Wang Yanbin finally chose the transurethral bladder stone holmium laser crushing for Lao Zhao, and at the same time performed prostate holmium laser removal surgery to solve his years of troubles at one time.
Unable to drain urine is more susceptible to bladder stones,
Children can also suffer!
The bladder stones swayed slowly in the blow of the holmium laser, "Don't look at them now as if they are round and quite cute, when it 'rolls' up, the patient thinks it is very hateful!" Wang Yanbin pointed to the operation video.
Bladder stones are urinary tract stones present in the bladder (urinary tract stones are firmer crystals formed by mineral components in the urine) that can form on their own in the bladder due to repeated urination, or stones from the upper urinary tract (kidneys, ureters) that follow the urine into the bladder.
Bladder stones are divided into two types: secondary bladder stones and primary bladder stones.
Secondary bladder stones
Stones from the kidneys and ureters enter the bladder causing bladder stones. Due to the influence of the shape and size of the stone, it fails to enter the urethra and is excreted, and it remains in the bladder and grows slowly. This type of stone is affected by living habits, living environment, etc., so it is more common in adults.
Primary bladder stones
Stones form in the bladder and are often secondary to lower urinary tract obstruction. When the urinary tract is obstructed, the urine is retained in the bladder and cannot be discharged in time, and some components in the urine (oxalic acid, phosphate, calcium, etc.) are deposited in the bladder, which can lead to the formation of stones. Malnutrition, urethral stenosis and other conditions can also cause primary bladder stones. Generally, children and the elderly are the mainstay, and most of the elderly suffer from prostatic hyperplasia and other urinary disorders.
Wang Yanbin introduced that every summer vacation, there will be children to come to the bladder stone surgery, some children due to the existence of urinary system malformations, before the operation to correct the urinary system, there will be repeated urinary tract stones, very painful.
Pain in the lower abdomen and interruption of urination are common symptoms,
Beware of sudden squatting while your child is playing!
The most common symptom of bladder stones is pain in the lower abdomen, most pronounced during urination, often radiating to the perineum and the head of the penis.
Because the stones roll in the bladder, the pain will be light and heavy as the position of the stones in the bladder changes, sometimes there will be painful urination stimulation and sudden interruption, and after a few beats, it can be normal urination.
Stones repeatedly irritate the bladder wall, and some patients develop terminal hematuria, i.e. bleeding at the end of urination, or urinary tract infection due to repeated bleeding of the bladder wall. In addition, when stones are embedded in the neck of the bladder, they can also cause acute urinary retention, causing severe pain in the lower abdomen.
Sick children often rub their penis with their hands when urinating or continue to urinate after running and jumping, even if they do not urinate, they will suddenly squat due to the pain of the bladder wall due to stones stimulating the bladder wall in activities such as running and jumping, causing changes in position caused by squatting, and continuing to move after the pain is relieved. Therefore, parents should pay special attention to the sudden squatting action of their children when playing.
prevention and treatment combined to reduce recurrence,
Drinking water is the easiest way to prevent it!
The reason why bladder stones are easy to recur, in addition to being closely related to living habits, is also related to some diseases ↓↓↓
1. Have diseases that can cause obstruction of the lower urinary tract, such as urethral stenosis, prostatic hyperplasia, neurogenic bladder, foreign body in the bladder, bladder diverticulum, etc.
2. Suffer from digestive system diseases that can cause abnormal calcium metabolism, such as inflammatory bowel disease, chronic diarrhea, etc.
3. Long-term use of certain drugs, such as glucocorticoids, vitamin C (more than 4g per day) and so on.
4. Systemic diseases, such as obesity, hypertension, etc.
5. Patients who have had bladder trauma.
Therefore, the treatment of bladder stones is inseparable from the treatment of these primary diseases. Wang Yanbin reminded that male patients with prostatic hyperplasia should pay special attention to the treatment of prostate diseases so as not to cause or aggravate bladder stones. If the elderly in the family suffer from prostatic hyperplasia, they should seek medical treatment in time to prevent urinary retention and urinary system stones.
For the treatment and prevention of bladder stones, Wang Yanbin introduced that drinking water is the most convenient way!
Drinking water can dilute the urine, reduce the concentration of stone-forming components in the urine, and reduce crystal precipitation. At the same time, a large amount of water intake can effectively increase the amount of urine, even if there are small crystals, precipitation can be washed out of the urethra by urine, which is very beneficial for the recovery of patients with bladder stone surgery after surgery. In addition, the weather is warmer, and children and office workers who love to drink drinks should pay attention to drinking more water and increasing physical activity.
