Seek medical Tx: If you know you have a kidney stone, and your pain is unable to be relieved, you should seek medical attention, as the stone may cause a dangerous back up of fluid into your kidney, etc. Best wishes.

Kidney stones: Although stones in the kidney are rarely painful, it is possible that a stone has left your kidney and is in the ureter creating ureteral colic. You may need a ct scan or ivp x-ray to determine the position of the stone.
