<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.hello Dr,My mom had a stone removed in April 2013 .A stent was placed which was then removed in May 2013. Then after a week she had severe kidney infection and was in the hospital for a week . Now she again started complaining of pain in the lower abdomen. A scan was done and a 6 mm stone was seen in the left kidney. The doctor has prescribed noculi tablets . She also is taking tabs for high BP and blood sugar. I just wanted to know whether anything else should be done,,  <response>: Good Day! If your mom doesnt feel pain then I would guess your doctor is trying to treat the 6 mm stone conservatively. Three indications to say that conservative treatment has failed are :1 Uncontrolled pain 2 intractable vomiting and 3fever. If you have any of above-mentioned symptoms then you may need to go to the ER and have the stone removed by endoscopy. I hope I was able to give you a satisfactory answer and best of health to your mom.
