I have back pain from past 1week so I suspected it as kidney stones because I faced same problem in 2014. I like to confirm this so visited vijaya diagnosis center they confirmed stone on kidney with bellow details Current condition: Right kidney - a calculus measuring 4mm is seen in upper pole of right kidney e/o simple cortical cyst noted in mid pole of kidney measuring 1.53×1.76cm Left kidney- a calculus measuring 5mm is seen in the mid pole of right kidney My question: Can i recover with only medicine or i have to go under operation? Please post your valuable answers

Hi there I understand your concern and anxiety...If stones less than 7mm generally pass through spontaneously without surgical intervention...I would suggest you to take plenty of fluids orally and over the counter analgesics for pain relief and antibiotics like levofloxacin for 5 days...consult nearest urologist they will help you further.
