Best Answer

According to Mayoclinic.org, treatment for kidney stones will vary based on the size of the stone(s), the number of stones, and where the stones are located. Your doctor might recommend waiting to see if your body passes the stone on its own or surgery might be recommended. Several of my family members have had kidney stones, and they were all hospitalized while waiting for the kidney stones to pass; hospitalization allowed the doctors to monitor their condition and to give them pain killers and muscle relaxers.
