What is the main reason for Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy?

The primary indication for Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) is the presence of stones in the gallbladder and ureter, particularly when the stone size is large. ESWL is an effective non-invasive treatment option to break down these stones into smaller fragments, facilitating their passage through the urinary system.

Is ESWL (Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy) serious?

While it is a non-invasive technique, it is important to consult with a qualified urologist to evaluate your specific condition and determine the most appropriate treatment approach.

Is ESWL painful?

ESWL (Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy) can cause discomfort or pain during the procedure. The shockwaves generated by the lithotripter machine can reach both superficial and deeper structures, which may contribute to the sensation of pain. However, the level of pain experienced can vary from person to person, and anesthesia or pain relief options are usually provided to ensure patient comfort during the procedure.

Is ESWL (Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy) safe?

The shock waves are focused on the kidney stones with precision, minimizing the risk of damage to surrounding organs and tissues. However, there are possible risks and side effects with any medical operation, so it's crucial to speak with a competent urologist to see if ESWL is appropriate for your particular situation and to go over any concerns or questions you might have.

Is ESWL (Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy) permanent?

ESWL (Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy) is designed to break down kidney stones into smaller fragments that can be easily passed through the urinary tract. The results of ESWL can be long-lasting, and in many cases, it provides a permanent solution for kidney stone removal. However, it is important to note that new stones may form in the future, and individual factors such as diet, lifestyle, and underlying medical conditions can contribute to stone recurrence.

What is the cost of ESWL (Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy) in Kolkata?
