General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

Most small stones in patients with relatively mild hydronephrosis can be treated with observation and acetaminophen.

More serious cases with intractable pain may require drainage with a stent or percutaneous nephrostomy.

Treatment of nephrolithiasis involves emergency management of renal (ureteral) colic, including surgical interventions where indicated, and medical therapy for stone disease.

In emergency settings where concern exists about possible renal failure, the focus of treatment should be on correcting dehydration, treating urinary infections, preventing scarring, identifying patients with a solitary functional kidney.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Iven Romic Rommstein, General Surgeon
