A bladder stone is a solid mass of minerals that forms in the bladder.
When the bladder is not emptied properly, stones form in the organ. Small stones are expelled from the body independently, however, in some clinical cases, surgical intervention or treatment with appropriate drugs is necessary.
It is necessary to consult a doctor in time, because the risk of developing infection or other pathologies increases significantly in untreated cases.
Notable symptoms are:
- Pain in the lower abdomen;
- Pain during urination;
- Frequent urination;
- It is difficult for a person to empty the bladder;
- Blood in the urine;
- Cloudy or unusually dark colored urine.
