symptoms in the early stages, until the patient feels pain or discomfort, the
disease is already in a serious stage. This makes treatment both costly and
time-consuming, and can even affect the patient's life.

promptly when the stone size is not large, it will cause dilatation of the renal
pelvis, affecting kidney function. Until the patient showed symptoms: low back
pain, blood in the urine, difficulty urinating, etc., he went to the doctor, the
