Symptoms of pain: In your back or side that radiates to the groin and waxes and wanes in intensity. Sometime frank blood in urine. Treatment depends of where stones are, how big they are, what the chemical composition of the stone is, why they developed in the first place. If you think you have kidney stones see a doctor.

A lot of pain: The symptoms overlap a lot with urinary tract infection since the same area is inflamed. Frequency, and pain. The pain is mainly bladder with extension to the kidney with UTI, and in the kidney with extension to the bladder with stones. Blood in urine (mostly visible) w. stones. Fever/signs of infection with infection.
