Hello,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
Yes. Kidney stones are one of the commonest reasons for pain abdomen. But usually if they are very small like less than 4mm or so they wont cause any obstruction anywhere and hence no chance of causing any pain.
What was the size of the stone found on scan? And also what was the site.
Usually the pain and severity depends on above 2 factors. Site and size of the stone.
The reason for pain is as kidney stones are foreign objects for body and sometimes it causes obstruction in urine outflow, the ureters go in spasmodic contractions to expel the stone. This is the reason for pain most commonly.
Consult a urologist with your report or get back with me with the detailed report and I will guide you further.
Awaiting your response.
Thank you
