I have an 11mm kidney stone but no pain right now. Can it be removed with medicine or will I need surgery? What are my options?
An 11mm kidney stone may not pass naturally and might require treatment, potentially including medical procedures or surgery. While some smaller stones may pass with increased water intake and medication, an 11mm stone has a lower chance of passing on its own. Treatment options include extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) to break up the stone, ureteroscopy to remove or break up the stone with laser or other tools, and in some cases, percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) for larger stones.

I've been diagnosed with mild right-sided hydronephrosis and a 3.4x2.7 mm left kidney stone with 150 HU. There's also mild right-sided perinephric fat stranding and peripelvic fluid, plus delayed contrast excretion on the right side. My right ureter is dilated with a 400 HU, 53 mm stone at the vesicoureteric junction. Is this something that can be treated without surgery, or is surgery the only option? Really worried and need advice fast.
