My father has been diagnosed with 2 stones of 4 mm and 5 mm in the right kidney and one small stone in the ureter. He has been admitted in the hospital and is unable to bear the pain. The doctors advised him to try tablets for a month to dissolve the stones naturally. But since the pain is unbearable, my father agreed to get the stones removed through surgery. Kindly advice what is to be done.

Symptomatic sones are the one to be removed. If the pain is not getting relieved with regular medications - then requires procedure - to get his further investigations like CT scan KUB region - as to exactly identify the size and location of the stone - with total number of stones - then the procedure to remove all the stone in a single anaesthesia. Presently laser day care surgery available - with early recovery.
