For larger stones or if the stone doesn’t pass on its own, more advanced treatments may be necessary. If the stone is too big to pass naturally or causes severe pain or infection, a procedure called shock wave lithotripsy may be used. This involves using sound waves to break the stone into smaller pieces that can be more easily passed. In more serious cases, doctors might perform a surgery like ureteroscopy, where a small scope is inserted into the urinary tract to remove or break up the stone. Dr. Sham Sunder, a skilled kidney specialist, would typically assess all these options and guide patients through the best treatment plan based on the size, location, and type of kidney stone they have.
