A member asked:

Does kidney stones cause swollen left leg and flank pains?

Dr. Joseph Accurso answered

Specializes in Radiology

No Leg swelling: But flank pain is common with kidney stones. Please see a doctor as soon as possible to diagnose your problems, since leg swelling can be due to a clot in the leg veins which is very serious and needs to be treated.
