Hello XXXXXX, Kidney stones are treated differently based on their size. Small stones less than 6\u00a0mm are usually treated by medical therapy, but larger size requires surgical removal otherwise it will not come out. There are different ways of performing the surgery. Some Urologists use thin tubes or endoscopes passed into urethra and can remove stones, which is relatively safe and a very quick and painless procedure. Nothing to worry. Please discuss he benefits and risks with the Doctor and get the best treatment for her.
