Dr. Schraeder suspects that his patient has a kidney stone. Which would most likely confirm the doctor’s suspicion?

A kidney stone commonly causes renal colic, which is severe, cramping pain as the stone moves through the urinary tract. It can also irritate or injure the urinary tract lining, causing hematuria (blood in the urine). Therefore, hematuria and renal colic are the findings most likely to support the suspicion.
