Kidney Stone Treatment in Ahmedabad Zydus Hospitals
-
Kidney stones are a common urological condition in India. They are usually made of salts and minerals in the urine. These stones can range in size from a grain of sand to larger, obstructive masses. When a stone blocks the flow of urine, it can lead to pain, infection, or kidney damage if not treated in time.
-
Zydus Hospitals offers comprehensive kidney stone treatment, combining advanced imaging, precise diagnosis, and modern surgical and non-surgical therapies. Our nephrology and Urology teams work together to manage everything from mild cases to complex recurrences, focusing on preservation of kidney function and long-term prevention.

Timely identification of kidney stone symptoms is essential to avoid complications. Patients may experience:

Burning or discomfort while urinating
-
Foul-smelling or foamy urine

-
Fever and chills in cases involving infection

To confirm the presence, size, and location of the kidney stone, our specialists perform:

Ultrasound: A safe and non-invasive method to detect stones
-
CT scan: The most accurate imaging for stones
-
Abdominal X-ray: To check Kidney, Ureters, Bladder

These tests guide the selection of the most effective treatment modality.
