Hello,
From your description, I am the opinion that you should undergo a USG and have an KUB x-ray done.
In the case of staghorn type of stone, surgery is the only option. In other types of kidney stones, Potassium citrate solution and lots of fluids are advised. You should do KFT also.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
