Severe Abdominal Pain. Sonography Shows Kidney Stones. Can This Be Treated By Oral Medicines Or Laser Treatment?

Hello…my son is 18 years old. Two days back he had sever abdominal pain which subsided in 10-15 minutes after taking pain killer. Following day as suggested by physician, he underwent sonography where kidney stones of 4, 5, 6 and 10 mm size were detected. My query is can these stones be treated through oral medicines or he will have to undergo laser treatment.

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Yes, up to a stone of size of 10 mm can come out through urethra I have treated such type of cases.
First of all be sure that kidneys are normal .
Now go for conservative or oral treatment . Plenty of water & fluid will help.
Lemon juice twice in day on empty stomach will further help as it dissolve calculus.
If you are in India treatment is very simple and side effect free.
Use or take neeri or calcury tablets 2-2-2 till stone come out .
As these both drugs are harmless and side free.
One more formula I have tried over my patient successfully ,you can try.
Take 10 black pepper chew them on empty stomach one by one , now drink 300 ml milk added with 20 gm ghee ( butter) . drink water maximum as you can .
Next day chew 20 black pepper and rest same .
3 rd day 30 black pepper and rest same .
Use disodium hydrogen citrate syrup along these , this act as alkalizer and helps in diuresis.
Good luck.

Hi
Thanks for the query.
There is no medication available which can "cure" the stones.
Your son can drink plenty of fluids as this might help the passage of the stone through the urine.
However one of the stones is 10 mm. Stones of this size cannot pass down the ureter and need surgical treatment. So you need to see a urologist for the same.
Also we need to perform certain blood and urine tests (called metabolic work up) to determine why your son is having so many stones at this age.

Hope this was helpful.
Good luck.
