What happens when you try to pass a stone in the kidney that is too big to be passed?

Q: My mother-in-law has a large stone in the kideny, but due to a bad heart she can not have surgery. I’m trying to find remedys to dissolve a large stone in the kidney, but I’m a bit worried that if something “works” and she tries to pass it, but it is too big it’ll cause more problems than if she just puts up with it.

A: There really isn’t a way to activily pass a kidney stone… it either comes out or its too big to come out… there is no way to force it. She should consult a urologist, they deal with those kinds of issues and can perscribe a drug that will allow the best possible conditions for passing the stone (our office uses something called Flowmax) or he/she will suggest either laser lithotripsy, or shock wave lithotripsy. If the stone is to big to pass and it blocks the ureter (the tube from the kidney to the bladder) it will cause A LOT of pain and she will have to get something done. Tell her to trink LOTS of water and reduce the soda intake. Hope this helps Good Luck
