What to do about numbness and bladder infection
Watch this 
View More Posts Ignore
I had a lithotripsy done last summer on 2 large stones in my left kidney. Since then, my bladder has been almost numb. I only feel pressure in my urinary tract. I recently developed a bladder infection, but it was noticed because of pain when I sit for too long, or sleep on my stomach. Very little urine cloudiness. Will this numbness go away, or could it be from scar tissue of some type? I am currently on 500 mg. of cipro daily, and may have to start seeing the urologist again. I still have about 10 stones in my right kidney. Is there anything safe to drink except cranberry juice and water?
