Kidney Stone Diagnosis – Urology Consultations in Gdańsk | Mediss Medical Clinic

Experiencing severe back pain, blood in your urine, or suspect you might have kidney stones? At Mediss Medical Clinic in Gdańsk, we offer specialist urology consultations and ultrasound diagnostics for urinary stones. Our experienced urologists help identify and locate stones in the urinary tract and refer patients for further treatment to appropriate external facilities if needed.

What Are Kidney Stones?

Kidney stones (urolithiasis) are hard mineral deposits that form within the urinary tract due to a build-up of substances like calcium oxalate, uric acid, or phosphate. These deposits can travel from the kidneys to the ureters or bladder, causing intense pain known as renal colic.

The condition often begins with the formation of microscopic crystals – commonly referred to as “gravel in the kidneys” – which can gradually grow into larger stones, leading to a full-blown episode of kidney stone disease.

Symptoms of Kidney Stones – When to See a Urologist?

Kidney stones may develop without symptoms, but when they start to move, typical signs include:

• Sudden, intense pain in the lower back radiating to the groin (renal colic),

• Hematuria (pink or red-tinged urine),

• Frequent or painful urination,

• Nausea and vomiting,

• Fever and chills (in case of infection).

If you notice any of these symptoms, schedule a consultation with our urologist in Gdańsk for timely diagnosis and relief.

Diagnostic Services at Mediss Medical Clinic – Gdańsk

At Mediss Medical, we offer abdominal ultrasound (USG) – a key non-invasive test that helps:

• detect the presence of stones in the kidneys, ureters, or bladder,

• identify any urine retention or urinary tract obstructions,

• assess kidney size and structure.

Ultrasound can be performed on-site during your visit. For more advanced imaging (CT, X-rays) or blood and urine analysis, we refer patients to external diagnostic centers as needed.

Treatment of Kidney Stones – What We Offer

At Mediss Medical Clinic, we provide conservative treatment for kidney stones, including:

• increased fluid intake to promote stone passage,

• pain management with antispasmodic and anti-inflammatory medications,

• medications supporting stone expulsion (e.g., alpha-blockers),

• lifestyle and dietary recommendations to prevent recurrence.

If surgical removal is required, we refer the patient to external specialized clinics or hospitals offering procedures such as:

• ESWL (shockwave lithotripsy) – non-invasive stone fragmentation using ultrasound waves,

• URS (ureteroscopy) – endoscopic stone removal,

• PCNL (percutaneous nephrolithotomy) – for large or complex stones.
