yes, the pain can radiate. The majority of the pain should be over the affected side, but its not uncommon for some to have pain on the opposite side.  If the pain is the same on both sides, you might want to be checked for additional kidney stones.

It isn't any more painful for males than women... speaking as a woman who has had them twice.  I've also had four kids and would choose having another kid over a kidney stone any day.  There is no timeframe for passing stones. They either pass or they don't, and they take their own sweet time.  The first one I had was a couple weeks of severe pain and peeing blood.  The second was off and on pain for a month and peeing blood.  I had to have lithotrypsy done that time because the size of the stone was comparative to a marble and it wouldn't have passed.  Make sure you see a urologist if you suspect a stone. If it gets lodged in the urethra and doesn't allow urine to pass then it can damage your kidney.

unfortunately no, just stay in touch with you doctors, ensure that you don't take medicines that are toxic to kidneys since kidneys excrete creatinine, good luck

You may need to clarify your question. Are you talking about kidney stones or inability to urinate or painful urination? Have you tried  www.webmd.com ? Has your condition been diagnosed?

Stones will pass within hours or a few days. Most kidney stones can pass through the urinary system with plenty of water (2 to 3 quarts a day).  As far as pain medication it would be best to ask your doctor.

Joe, you may have a urinary tract infection, or you may be passing stones. I think there is a couple more things it could be as well. I would suggest you see a doctor very soon. In the mean time, try to drink more water. Cranberry juice is also supposed to be very good at flushing out your kidneys. Avoid drinks with caffeine or a lot of added sugar.\n\nThis is the best advice I know to give you at this time. I hope it helps.\n\nSincerely,\nTerry

no, surgery is not the only solution, the doctors can give her medication through IV that will break the stones and she will be able to get them out through the urinary track. Don't let them operate until they try that. My stepmother had the same problem, and they were able to resolve it without operating

Have you already gone through the full kidney and colon cleansing processes?\n\n        Kidney cleanse is any procedure that involves drinking a huge amount of liquid, and taking care what you are eating. Just a better diet with more water can be enough! But, also any form of bowel cleansing will also help kidneys! The Master Cleanse Lemonade Diet  is also a Kidney cleanse, juice fasting is also a kidney cleanse, and any other form of fasting that incorporates a lot of liquids, will in the same time clean a kidney. Do you need special herbs? Only if you have acute lower back pain, clear symptom of Kidney stones (sharp glass like crystals, made of phosphoric acid, or sometimes may include other acids). In special occasions, you can get a kidney stone crystallized in less then a few days !!! To melt a stone/stones, you may need a few weeks, or one day with the Watermelon Cleanse.\n\n            Recipes for Kidney Cleanse:\n            Herbal Kidney Clease\n            Watermelon Cleanse\n            Water Cure\n            More on kidney cleanse herbs\n\n        Herbal Kidney Cleanse  Designed by Dr. Hulda Clark from her book "The Cure for All Disease", explains in detail how to cleanse the kidneys, and her cleansing program will get rid of most if not all the stones, WITHOUT surgery.\n        Ingredients:\n\n            1/2 cup dried Hydrangea root\n            1/2 cup Gravel root\n            1/2 cup Marshmallow root\n            4 bunches of fresh parsley\n            Goldenrod tincture (leave this out of the recipe if you are allergic to it)\n            Ginger Capsules\n            Uva Ursi capsules\n            Vegetable glycerine\n            Vitamin B6 250mg\n            Magnesium oxide 300mg or 1/4 cup Green Drink Beverage\n\n        Measure ¼ cup of each root and set them to soak, Together in 10 cups of cold tap water, using a non-metal container and a non-metal lid (a dinner plate will do).  After four hours (or over night),    bring liquid with soaked herbs to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes.  Drink a ¼ cup as soon as it is cool enough.  Pour the rest in through a bamboo or plastic strainer into a sterile pint jar (glass) and several freezable containers.  Refrigerate the glass jar.\n        Find fresh parsley at a grocery store that does not spray its produce (ask the owner). Boil the fresh parsley, after rinsing, in 1 quart of water for 3 minutes.  Strain out the liquid, then drink ¼ cup when cool enough.  Refrigerate a pint and freeze 1 pint.  Put the cooked parsley in your compost bucket.\n        Dose:  each morning, pour together ¾ cup of the root mixture and ½ cup parsley water, filling a large mug.  Add 20 drops of goldenrod tincture and 1 tbs. of glycerin.\n\n        Drink this mixture in divided doses throughout the day. Keep cold. Do not drink it all at once or you will get a stomach ache and feel pressure in the bladder. If your stomach is very sensitive, start on half this dose.\n\n        Save the roots after the first boiling, storing them in the freezer. After 13 days when your supply runs low, boil the same roots a second time, but add only 6 cups water and simmer only 10 minutes. This will last another 8 days, for a total of three weeks. You may cook the roots a third time if you wish, but the recipe gets less potent. If your problem is severe, only cook them twice.\n        After three weeks, repeat with fresh herbs. You need to do the kidney cleanse for six weeks to get good results, longer for severe problems.\n\n        Also take:\n\n            Ginger capsules: one with each meal (3/day).\n            Uva Ursi capsules: one with breakfast and two with supper\n            Vitamin B6 (250mg): one per day\n            Magnesium oxide (300mg): one a day\n\n        Take these supplements just before your meal to avoid burping.\n\n        Some notes on this recipe: this herbal tea, as well as the parsley, can easily spoil. Heat it to boiling every fourth day if it is being stored in t

Please! Please! Please! Consult your family physician and your pharmacist on this one. I am not a health professional, but I am a freelance writer who has done a number of stories on this issue and I have been involved in herbal and homeopathic medicine for years. I am a big believer in the PROPER use of herbal and homeopathic medicine, but too often people believe that just because it's available over the counter it's "okay". Or, alternatively, just because it's "natural" it can't harm you. Nothing can be farther from the truth. Some herbs can do serious damage if taken with certain medications. For example, willow bark can interfere or do serious damage if taken with certain blood thinners. Some of these combinations can even require hospitalization or become toxic. \n\nYour doctor and pharmacist will be able to help you decide what medication and what herbs and homeopathic remedies will be best. However, here is something to remember; not all herbal pills are the same. In other words; when you take one pill it may contain 5 grams of herb A, 10 grams of herb B, and 15 grams of herb C. The next pill from the same bottle may contain 8 grams of herb A, 11 grams of herb B, and 18 grams of herb C. There is no guarantee that you are getting the same amount of medication each time. This means that you are spinning the roulette wheel and hoping the average dose you take over a period of time helps with your particular problem. \n\nThere is also the problem you mention of kidney issues and arthritis. These are serious issues. Please remember that any medication or herb that goes into the body has to be processed by the kidneys. Putting an herb into the body that may be hard on the body may actually put a strain on the one remaining kidney. Also, there are herbs out there that can cause problems for arthritis instead of helping.\n\nAgain, my advice is to consult the family physician or the pharmacist. The pharmacist is especially knowledgeable on this issue and I would consult with him/her first. \n\nThere is just one part of your question that frightens me. The person (homeopathic "doctor") you consulted said that because these remedies are all natural there would be no problems. This is irresponsible and dangerous on their part. Any professional in this field should immediately tell you this is a health issue and, like any health issue, there are concerns to be addressed. Just because something is "natural" does not make it good. Rattlesnake poison is "natural" but I don't think I'd want to down a pint of that.\n\nBefore you go to this homeopathic "doctor" please consult with either your family physician or your pharmacist. They are a wealth of information and are more than willing to assist you in this matter.

Kidney stones are often larger than the inner diameter of the ureter or urethra.  Even if they are not, the are still going to scrape against the sides of these "tubes" causing irritation.  According to the institute of health site, blockage of urine flow can cause pressure build up which also causes pain.\n\nI don't know if the pain that is caused evolved to help trigger an "expulsion" response from the body or if it is just "pain" associated with any form of "intrusion".\n\nAll I know is that I've doubled up into a fetal position from the pain before.\n\nCheck with your Urologist and have him analyze the make up of the stone so you can figure out what things to avoid in your diet.\n\nMy stones were composed of Calcium Oxalate and seemingly caused in part by binges on calcium based antacids for indigestion and high consumption of nuts and teas which are sources of oxylates.\n\nI never go near calcium based antacids any more and have cut back on my peanut butter and tea.\n\nGood luck to you.
