15 mm kidney stone at pulvis
Hello, I have 15 mm kidney stone in right kidney at pulvis junction and another 9mm at lower pole in right kidney itself.. I took homeopathic medicine but no improvement and sne grew from 10 mm to 15 mm. Kindly advise if I should go for operation as I have recurring stone tendency..however till now 3..4 times my stone passed through urine but those were of small sizes..please suggest if homeopathy can dissolve these two stones? Honest opinion plz
As you rightly pointed out, smaller stones will naturally pass sometimes. But the larger stones cannot. In my experiences stones only grow in size and not reduce. Kindly get your blood tests regularly to monitor your kidney function. You might need DJ stent and RIRS eventually.
Next Steps
Meet an urologist, explore options, get blood tests regularly to keep tab on kidney function.
