Diya Chopra, a 28-year-old software engineer,...
Diya Chopra, a 28-year-old software engineer, had been experiencing a persistent, dull ache in her lower back for over a month. The pain, initially mild, had become sharp and stabbing, especially after long hours at her desk. She also noticed a frequent, urgent need to urinate, often with a burning sensation. Worried it might be a recurring kidney infection, she visited her family doctor, who found microscopic blood in her urine. The doctor referred her to a urologist, Dr. Sharma, suspecting a kidney stone. Dr. Sharma recommended a USG KUB (Ultrasound of the Kidney, Ureter, and Bladder) to get a clear, non-invasive picture of her urinary tract. At the clinic, the sonographer applied a cool gel to Diya's abdomen. The procedure was completely painless, though the pressure from the transducer over her tender flank was slightly uncomfortable. Diya felt anxious, silently fearing a serious diagnosis. The scan revealed a small 4mm stone in her left kidney. Dr. Sharma explained it was likely passable with increased water intake and prescribed medication for the pain and urgency. A week after the scan, with strict hydration, Diya passed the stone. Her symptoms resolved completely. Emotionally, she moved from a state of fear and uncertainty about an unseen internal problem to immense relief. Knowing the exact cause, something small and treatable, empowered her to manage her recovery confidently.
