Hello my husband has lower back pain yesterday all day & lower abdominal pressure in the groin area. he woke up today w/ a couple of tiny blood spots in the front of his underwear. Plus it hurt from his lower back across his chest & rib cage. Are these signs of passing a kidney stone , because he was told at the hospital last year that he has a few small stones. Thanks
Hi there, there is a possibility that he may have passed the stone out in his urine. The abdominal pain along with the low backache also favors the passing of the stone down the ureter. You can get a urine exam along with an x-ray PUB done for your husband and check with his previous X-ray as to the position of the stone, or you can also ask him to get an ultrasound done to see the position of the stone and whether it is causing any obstruction. Take care.
