My urologist recommended a cystoscopy (bladder inspection), but is there any other treatment for me?"-Dr. Mistry discusses the difference between a true urge to urinate and an overactive bladder, as well as how our bodies work to make less urine as we rest throughout the night." I have had a kidney stone for 5 years that could not be broken into smaller pieces- what should I do?"-Dr. Mistry discusses different changes that can occur in the kidney, including the development of a kidney stone that is not responsive to traditional methods (e.g. using shockwave therapy to break up stones). Seeking treatment sooner than later is often a good starting point, as kidney stones can cause pain if and when they decide to move or make their way out of the body. At NAU Urology Specialists, patients have access to a dietitian/nutritionist that can go over dietary changes to reduce their individual stone risk!If you enjoyed today’s episode, don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share us with a friend!
