Pain Around Front And Back Into Groin, Having Kidney Stone. Passed Kidney Stone Years Ago. Will Apple Cider And Olive Oil Mix Help?
hello. my husband has passed a kidney stone several yrs ago. He had symptoms again several months ago. Tonight he again is experiencing bad pain. Its in his back & around front & down into his groin. He has vomitted several times. He is in a warm bath trying to ride out the cycle of pain. He didnt go to hospital the time he passed it before. It took several days for it to pass. Weve read about the apple cider/olive oil mix. Do you have any suggestions PLEASE

HI
Thanks for the query.
The description of the pain is consistent with colic due to stones.
He should drink plenty of fluids and take some simple antispasmodics and analgesics.
If there is no relief of symptoms he should see a physician and get an ultrasound and urine exam.
Hope this helps
Good luck
