Any home remedies for the pain from kidney stones?

Hydration: Stones in the kidney itself rarely cause pain. If one of the stones moves into the tube connecting to the bladder (ureter), then severe pain may occur. The smaller stone may pass with drinking plenty of fluids. Larger stones may require removal by a urologist. A ct scan without contrast is the most common method for diagnosing if you are trying to pass a stone, as well as determining its size.

Prevention is first.: Best is prevention of the stones, not treatment of the pain. Have you doctor evaluate you to determine the appropriate treaent, then discuss with him/her the dietary changes that will be necessary, depending upon the type of stone (calcium vs. Oxlate).
