What is the Post-Procedure Care for Children?

After ESWL, children may experience some discomfort or visible blood in the urine, which usually resolves within a few days. Pain management with appropriate medications is often necessary. It is crucial to encourage adequate hydration to facilitate the passage of fragmented stones. Follow-up imaging studies are typically performed to assess the clearance of the stones and monitor for any potential complications.
