Wow: I am sorry you have suffered 30 stones and yes they can hurt inside or outside. Each of us a different in our pain threshold. Did you have a urine metabolic work up along along with blood work to determine cause. Did you ever get a stone analysis. Key is prevention and suggest see a kidney doc.
