Does Vein Stone In Pelvic Area Cause Severe Pain?
Daughter is having moderate to severe pain in abdomen moving to side and then groin area. Happening off and on for about two months. Had a cat scan a couple of days ago looking for kidney stones. None present, just vein stones in pelvic area. Referred to urologist. She is having a lot of pain again tonight. Can vein stones cause this or could kidney stones have been missed on scan.

Dear User,
vein stones do not exist. May be your physician was talking about ureteral or pyelic stones. Inside our vessels we can find thrombi, but it is almost impossible they can be confused with stones.
