A member asked:
My 5 year old child has 7 mm kidney stones. is it big?. any medicine to break down the stone? can it pass naturally.what is the treatment
A doctor has provided 1 answer
7mm stone: It is unusual for a 5 year old to have kidney stones. If the stone is positioned in a safe place, where it is not causing pain or blockage watching it may be the best option. A 7 mm stone would be impossible to pass. He should be seen by a Pediatric nephrologist and urologist. All the best.
