Will The Large Kidney Stone Pass On Its Own?

My father was diagnosed in 2001 with Multiple Sclerpsis. He was born in 1955, 4 days ago he was told he has a LARGE kidney stone on top of all other pain. He has no pressure and cannot pass his urine well. Will he have trouble peeing out this kidney stone, since it is hard for him to urinate already?

Hi,
More is the size of kidney stone less likely till will be pass spontaneously. As you not mention the size of stone, we cant predict the probability of passing this stone spontaneously. However, more importantly, your father is 60 yrs old and have multiple sclerosis (MS). So both the "Old age" and "MS" can present with lower urinary tract symptoms. The older patients have prostate related problem and MS have urinary bladder related symptoms which draw more clinical attention. You need to discuss your Neurologist about this and require urologist opinion for all these problem
Hope, this will help you in clearing your doubts
