Kidney stones: Most people who 'pass' a stone have symptoms and they are often quite severe. Abdominal pain, flank pain, urinary frequency and sometimes burning. If the stones are very small like grains of sand it is possible no symptoms or very minor burning at most. All people should be encouraged to drink adequate fluids who are at risk or who have a diagnosis of kidney stones.

If small: Enough they will probably send you home drinking fluids and stone will pass on its own, possibly feeling the pain pass from your lower back anterior as it passes. Severe pain and nausea associated, medications will be provided.
