Brief Answer:
Trichomoniasis and Kidney stones Not Related!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about these symptoms that you have reported. Kidney stones and trichomoniasis are not related. They may co-exist and it is totally coincidental and not like one condition would cause the other. Am curious to know what makes you to think that you have trichomoniasis.
For the several kidney stones, your doctors need to investigate proper into what the exact cause of this is. While addressing the stones to take them out, identifying the predisposing factor to make sure that it is addressed and further stones prevented from developing is very important. For now, staying hydrated and taking so pain medications would help with the kidney pain. If this stone is small enough, it may be expelled with urine.
In all, these two conditions are not related. Hope you have been investigated and well managed for the kidney stones by your doctors by identifying the predisposing factors and addressing right. For now, pain medication and increased fluid intake is necessary to control the current kidney stone and pain.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
