Urinary Disorders
A 45-year-old grocery sales clerk has been suffering from
bouts of severe pain in his left flank region. He blamed it on prolonged
standing for 8 hours straight while working. He was taking over-the-counter
pain medications for his pain. One day, he found fresh blood in his urine. He
went to a doctor who performed urine tests, CT scans, and x-rays. He was
diagnosed with urinary calculi.
·
Discuss
possible factors that may have been responsible for the development of the
stone and use this case to show how the patient's diet and water intake can
help analyze the composition of the calculi.
·
What
would be the test results of his white blood cells, blood calcium levels, CT
scan, and x-ray?
·
Suggest
the best treatment for the patient and a plan to prevent recurrence
post-treatment.
By the due date assigned, submit your initial
response(s) to the above questions to the Discussion Area. Your
