Bladder Stones
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
When pain appears in the lower abdomen along with discomfort when urinating, an evaluation helps identify its cause, which is sometimes bladder stones. Bladder stones are solid, stone-like buildups that form from minerals concentrated in the urine inside the bladder.
Frequent symptoms: pain or discomfort in the lower abdomen, a frequent or urgent need to urinate, burning when doing so and, sometimes, blood in the urine.
Common causes: they are usually related to incomplete emptying of the bladder, repeated infections, or other conditions that favor the concentration of minerals.
Which specialist evaluates them? The urologist is the one who studies and follows up on this condition, and the general practitioner can guide the first visit. If you have these urinary symptoms, it is advisable to have them checked by a professional.
