Can Presence Of Kidney Stone Make Me Experience Gross Hematuria?
can a kidney stone in my right kidney be irritated by my golf swing and cause me to experience gross hematuria? Every time I play, hit balls at the range or just take a few swings for the monitor I pass blood in 24 hours. Then it goes away in a day or so. The stone is only 2mm. My urologist and internist don t seem to be concerned. Just let the stone pass. It s been 2 months and I m not aware of it passing. I have no pain. Just a sore lower back due to what I believe are my 3 herniated discs. Yet, sometimes my side/back aches during this bleeding.

Hello
2 mm calculus is unlikely to cause hematuria(blood in urine).
It is important to investigate other reasons like urinary tract infection(UTI),tumour etc.It is important to know your age.
You need proper clinical examination and further investigations.
Investigations include routine hemogram,random blood sugar,urine RE/ME,renal function test.CT scan and endoscopic examination can be done if needed.
Proper treatment depend upon findings.
2 mm calculus is expected to pass spontaneously.
Most probably,low backache is related to herniated disc.
Get well soon.
