I'm not sure if this is the correct forum to post this in. However, I'm looking for any advice on this. I took my 8 year old to the doctor about 6 months ago, but longer for what I thought was a kidney stone. He was in the floor crying with pain when he had to go potty. This happened at night and I was able to calm him, gave him tylenol and he was fine. Then next morning he took a shower and said the bubble came out when he went to potty and he felt so much better. So I thought kidney stone. Now our doctor seems to be just brushing this stuff away as nothing. They tested his urine and did find a little blood but dr said he didn't see the need to run any other tests.
Son has been fine since.
My mom has him today since he is out of school and said he is complaining of hurting when he has to pee. He said its not too bad but just stings a little. She said after he went to pee that there was tiny pieces of gravel type things in the bottom of the toilet (could have been anything...we aren't sure it came from him)
I called dr again today and there's no answer. I don't think they are closed today but it wasn't during their lunch hour when I called and it went straight to voice mail. I'm not sure what to do. I know there isn't a lot that can be done about kidney stones and the dr would probably send him home but at least I would know if that's what it was and maybe change his diet or something?
Any advice or tips are appreciated.
