Could An Accident Cause An Existing Kidney Stone To Move And Cause Problem?
Could an auto accident cause an existing kidney stone to move and become a problem? I know they are not formed by accidents. 24 hours after an accident I was in the emergency room in extreme pain. I am 59, in very good health, and had a very small stone pass about three years ago - no problem- didn't even need to see the doctor about it. No more problems until the accident.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern this could be co-incidence that you have accident and the pain started because of the stone (renal) of course the stone changes it place but not due to the accident that you had, this is a separate condition and this need to be treated accordingly, hope this information helps you, take care and have nice day.
