Help?
I am a seventeen years old female, the past 6 months I've been having problems with UTI that refuse
to go AWAY! Two months ago I had to go the hospital at 3am because my kidney was killing me, it turns
out it was kidney stones, not just one, two in both kidneys. Sometimes when I go to the doctor they'd tell me that my urine looks fine. Last week I went to the hospital because I was in so much pain, my urine had blood in it. They
gave me a shot in the back and gave me antibiotics to go. Two days ago, I went back again and they told me my urine looks perfectly fine. I was like, it may look fine, I don't feel fine. Since last week, I am unable to empty
my bladder.. the hospital did a bladder ultrasound, they did see 121mm of pee in me. I know that's not alot but It is not comfortable. They did nothing but told me to go see a urologist, I went to see the urologist 4 months ago twice, they did NOTHING! Now I got an appointment tommorrow, I am sooo fustrated.. Any idea what it could be to be causing so much problems for me? It'd help to have your opinion.

Hello,
in your case the nephrolithiasis ( stones in kidney) are responsible for causing the pain, blood in urine and difficulty in urine. I’ll suggest consulting a urologist for the same and seeking treatment depending on the size of the stone. If the size of the stone is small, it’s usually treated with ESWL in which shock waves are given from outside and stone breaks into small pieces. On the other hand, if the stone is quite big, then the surgical removal of the stone is a better option. Please do continue to drink lots of water for it does facilitate at least in preventing the formation of new stones if not the flushing out of the present stones.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
