Yes, kidney stones that become large or become lodged in the kidney or lower in the urinary tract, can sometimes cause problems with the kidney. A stone that blocks the flow of urine, left too long, can result in the death of the kidney or damage to the urinary tract. A kidney stone itself can be telling you that you already have a problem with your kidney. Crystals normally are formed when urine is made, especially in a dehydrated patient; however, when crystals grow and become a stone, it can be because of a kidney problem that is already present.

Your son was just diagnosed with kidney stones one on the way down.will he be in pain for a while or just while he actually passes it?
When the stone sits in the kidney, it rarely causes problems, but should it fall into the ureter, it acts like a dam. The kidney continues to function and make urine, which backs up behind the stone, stretching the kidney. This pressure build up causes the pain of a kidney stone, but it also helps push the stone along the course of the ureter. When the stone enters the bladder, the obstruction in the ureter is relieved and the symptoms, and pain, of a kidney stone are resolved.
