My name is Skye and I'm male, and I personally love my name (No, I'm not gay). I've never found a straight-up definition of this name, but I have been given multiple separate answers, and people have told me it means: eternal, winged, protected, sheltering, and enduring. So for me really, it's a survivor's name.
Diagnosis of kidney stones is best accomplished using an ultrasound, intravenous pyleography (IVP), or a CT scan. Most kidney stones will pass through the ureter to the bladder on their own with time. Treatment includes pain-control medications and, in some cases, medications to facilitate the passage of urine.
Medications to help pass kidney stones may not be effective. Posted on August 8, 2015 by Dr. Mike Nguyen. If youâve recently experienced a kidney stone episode, there is a good chance that a medication such as tamsulosin or nifedipine may have been prescribed to help you pass your stone.
