People who need to be away from medical care for a long time due to work need to monitor the condition of the kidneys and the presence of stones in them – in a situation where it is not possible to see a doctor urgently, renal colic can be a threat to health and life. Igor Seregin, a urologist at Botkin Hospital, Candidate of Medical Sciences, told socialbites.ca about this.
“Workers in the aviation, railway and maritime sectors need to be especially careful in this regard. Otherwise, there is a risk that the stone will start to move away and nothing can be done. “Such people need to be examined, treated and prophylactically removed on a regular basis,” he warned.
