Treatment Treating kidney stones is primarily
focused on symptom management. Passing a stone
can be very painful. If a person has a history of
kidney stones, home treatment may be suitable.
Individuals who have never passed a kidney stone
should speak with a doctor. If hospital
treatment is needed, an individual may be
rehydrated via an intravenous (IV) tube, and
anti-inflammatory medication may also be
administered. Narcotics are often used in an
effort to make the pain of passing the stone
tolerable. Antiemetic medication can be used in
people experiencing nausea and vomiting.

In some cases, a Urologist can perform a shock
wave therapy called lithotripsy. This is a
treatment that breaks the kidney stone into
smaller pieces and allow it to pass. People with
large stones located in regions that do not allow
for lithotripsy may receive surgical procedures,
such as removal of the stone via an incision in
the back or by inserting a thin tube into the
urethra.
