A member asked:
Are kidney stones painful when they are still in the kidney?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, it's possible: Usually, stones that migrate into and obstruct the urine flow cause pain, however, non-obstructing stones in the kidney are both common and potentially also a cause for pain. This has been reported in the radiology literature, please see this article: http://www.Ajronline.Org/doi/full/10.2214/ajr.07.2922.
