Can kidney stones do any perment damage on any part of my body?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Slight chance: If kidney stones are either due to chronic (longterm) infection in the kidney or if they cause the ureter to be blocked, then yes, they can cause long term damage to the kidney. You should consult with your urologist to see if the proper tests have been done to check for these conditions.
