My wife has a 12 mm stone in her left kidney and feels mild pain daily. Can this be treated with medicine or does she need surgery?

Kidney stones may not always cause pain and discomfort and may remain asymptomatic unless they grow too big or get stuck in the ureter or urethra. A 12 mm kidney stone is large and can cause much pain and difficulties and requires surgery for removal.
