Why would a child's urine be cloudy?
Cloudy urine occurs for various reasons. Sediment can be from the shedding of the lining of the urinary system. In children, it is often related to incomplete emptying and holding behaviors. The sediment builds up from not emptying completely and then is seen in the urine. Medications can also form sediment and sometimes infection can make urine cloudy. In general: hydration, frequent trips to the restroom, management of constipation, and taking time to empty completely will promote good bladder/bowel elimination health. READ MORE
My son has a kidney stone, is passing it the only way to remove it?
Kidney stones are less common in children, but treatment is nearly identical to treatment in adults. Small stones will tend to pass on their own with time. If the stone is unlikely to pass or if there are problems such as infection or severe pain, then surgical interventions of various types can be used to break and/or remove the stone. READ MORE
