Q. How to get rid of my kidney stone naturally?
Hello doctor,
I have a kidney stone of 4.4 mm at the joint of the left side kidney to the ureter. I also have a mild swelling in my left kidney, while the kidney function test is normal. My stone was not detected on the ultrasound, but it is visible in the CT Scan. I had blood in the urine 12 days back, but not now. A mild swelling in the left kidney is still there. I also feel a mild pain in the left side of the lower abdomen and back. The doctor is advising me to go for a surgical removal of the stone as the swelling of the kidney can itself create problems. I am taking allopathic medicines as well as Cystone. What should I do?
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I just read your query.
The urologist's suggestion is right. The kidney swelling can lead to a further damage in the kidney.
- The blood in the urine was due to a friction of the stone with the kidney surface. There is no blood in the urine now either due to a mild change in the position of the stone or due to the medicines you are taking currently.
- The size of the kidney stone is a bit large. The average size of the ureter is around 3 to 4 mm. It is hard to say if it will come out with the help of the medicines or not. But, if you want to try taking the medications first, you can.
- While urinating, watch out for the stone, blood or any other abnormality. If your stone comes out in the urine, you will need to get a scan done to ensure that it is completely removed.
- In case of an emergency like an excessive pain, which might be due to the stone passing down the ureter, you can visit a reputed urologist nearby.
- Start taking the following medicines for four weeks:
- Chandraprabha Vati two tablets twice a day with water after food for four weeks.
- Gokhru Kadha 15 ml twice a day with water, after food for four weeks.
- Tablet Neeri, two tablets thrice a day with water after food for four weeks.
- Punarnavadi Guggulu two tablets twice a day with water after food for four weeks.
- Some things to remember:
- Do not swallow these tablets. First, chew them and then take them with water.
- Drink plenty of water.
- Drink coconut water and barley water.
- If you can find kulathi dal nearby, you can take it. Make a soup of this dal and drink daily or on alternate days.
- Avoid excessive caffeinated drinks, spicy, junk food, tomato, spinach, dairy products, etc.
- Try all these things regularly and you are likely to see positive results within a month. Do consult me after four weeks regarding an improvement.
I hope you are satisfied with my answer. Feel free to ask more questions in case of doubts.
